About of Catriona A. Mclean

Catriona A. Mclean is a neurologist based in Melbourne, working from 55 Commercial Rd, VIC 3004. Neurology is all about the brain, the nerves, and how signals move through the body. That can cover long-term conditions, sudden symptoms, and complex changes that need careful checking.


In day-to-day practice, Dr Mclean looks after people with memory and thinking problems, including dementia. She also treats neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. Movement and coordination issues are another big part of her work, including Parkinson’s disease, secondary parkinsonism, and several movement disorders. At times, she also supports people dealing with progressive changes that affect walking, balance, and muscle control.


Some patients come with seizures and epilepsy, and others have problems that involve the brain’s wiring and function. Dr Mclean works with people who need help when symptoms point to conditions like encephalitis, brain tumours, or other issues affecting the brain and brainstem. She can also be involved in care when there are signs that need further brain imaging and neurologic assessment, especially when symptoms are new, getting worse, or unclear.


There are also situations where nerve and muscle conditions show up in the clinic. This can include disorders that affect movement, muscle strength, and function over time. In many cases, it’s not just one problem. It can be a mix of symptoms, and that’s why neurologists focus on the pattern of symptoms as well as the test results.


Because her role sits in a wide part of the health system, Dr Mclean’s work often involves building a plan around the person’s goals and what’s happening now. Treatments may include ongoing monitoring, medication guidance, and helping patients and families understand what to expect as conditions progress.


Her public profile here lists her specialty and location, along with a broad range of conditions she cares for. It does not include details about her education, research work, or any clinical trials. If you’d like, you can ask the practice directly about those parts when booking.
