Gary F. Egan is a neurologist based at Wellington Rd, Melbourne, VIC 3800, Australia. He helps people with nervous system conditions that can affect movement, memory, and day to day body control.
Neurology can look different from one person to the next. Over time, Gary works with patients dealing with movement disorders, like Parkinson’s disease and drug induced dyskinesia. He also looks after people with problems with balance and coordination, such as Friedreich ataxia, hereditary ataxia, and spinocerebellar ataxia.
Memory and thinking issues are also part of the picture. In many cases, this includes conditions like Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, and memory loss. At times, people also come in with changes that can affect behaviour and thinking, including Huntington disease, and other long term neuro conditions.
Headaches and neurological migraine can be a big deal too. Gary’s care covers migraine with brainstem aura and familial hemiplegic migraine. He also treats migraine related problems where symptoms can feel scary and confusing. Other nervous system diagnoses he manages include multiple sclerosis (MS) and optic neuritis.
Some appointments involve motor neuron disease and other serious conditions, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS or Lou Gehrig’s disease) and primary lateral sclerosis. There are also situations linked with newborn care, such as intraventricular haemorrhage of the newborn, plus developmental speech and reading issues like developmental dysphasia familial and developmental reading disorder.
Gary may also support people who have CACH syndrome, dehydration, and changes related to menopause. For prostate cancer, visits may focus on neurological symptoms or complications that come along with broader health concerns. If clinical trials or research are involved, specific details aren’t listed here, so the focus stays on what can be done in clinic right now.
Education and work history details aren’t provided in this profile. If you’re checking fit, it can be helpful to ask what experience applies to your specific diagnosis and the kind of care you need.
