Serene S. Paul is a neurologist based in Lidcombe, NSW, working at the University Of Sydney, 75 East St, Lidcombe, NSW 2141, Australia.
Neurology can feel complicated from the outside, but day to day it often comes down to helping people deal with symptoms, get answers, and make a plan that fits real life. Dr Paul looks after adults and children who have problems with the brain, nerves, or how the body moves.
Her clinic work includes Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders. At times, movement issues can affect walking, balance, sleep, and everyday tasks like getting dressed or using the bathroom. In many cases, the right support can make a big difference to comfort and function, even when symptoms change over time.
Dr Paul also treats conditions linked to nerves in and around the head and ears. This includes acoustic neuroma and schwannoma. These can cause things like hearing changes, dizziness, or ongoing nerve pain. She focuses on careful assessment so patients understand what is happening and what options might suit their situation.
For younger patients, she works with conditions such as alternating hemiplegia of childhood and hemiplegia. These neurological conditions can show up in patterns, and they can be hard for families to manage day to day. Clear communication matters here, along with support that helps carers feel more confident about next steps.
She also sees people with neuroendocrine tumours that involve the nervous system. This is a rarer group, and each case can be quite different. In those situations, Dr Paul aims to connect the dots between symptoms and the wider treatment picture, while making sure the nerve-related side of care is not overlooked.
Overall, Dr Paul’s work is about steady, practical care. She listens, takes time to explain things in plain language, and helps patients sort through symptoms, tests, and treatment choices. If you’re looking for a neurologist in the Lidcombe area for movement disorders, nerve-related brain and ear conditions, or neurological problems in children, Dr Paul can be a good place to start.
