Brendan P. Major is a neurologist based in Melbourne, Victoria, at 99 Commercial Road. Neurology is all about the brain, spinal cord, and the nerves that connect everything together. When people come in with symptoms that might be linked to the nervous system, he focuses on getting a clear picture of what’s going on and what can help next.
His clinical work covers concussion, seizures, and traumatic brain injury. That can include worries after a head knock, ongoing issues after an injury, or seizure-like episodes that need careful assessment. In many cases, these problems can be stressful and confusing, especially when you’re trying to work, study, or care for family as usual.
Head injuries don’t always settle quickly. Over time, some people notice changes in sleep, mood, concentration, headaches, or balance. Brendan helps sort out how symptoms fit with concussion and traumatic brain injury, and what steps may reduce the risk of things dragging on.
For seizures, the goal is to understand the pattern and the triggers. Seizures can look different from person to person, and sometimes it takes time to connect the dots. Brendan takes a calm, practical approach so patients can feel more confident about the next plan, whether that involves further checks, treatment options, or monitoring.
He also works with the wider health team where needed. Neurology care often works best when GPs, allied health, and other specialists are on the same page. This helps make sure any recovery plans and follow-up are realistic for everyday life.
Brendan’s medical training includes neurology. Like many doctors, he also keeps up with new findings as they come out, especially when it helps with managing concussion and seizure conditions in real life.
There’s also a growing interest in clinical trials across brain injury and seizure care. Where clinical trials are relevant, he discusses what that could mean in practical terms, so the choice stays informed and grounded. If a trial isn’t the right fit, the focus remains on care that suits the situation right now.
Overall, Brendan P. Major brings a steady, down-to-earth approach to neurological care in Melbourne—focused on understanding symptoms, supporting recovery, and helping patients move forward with clear next steps.
