Samantha M. Loi is a neurologist based in Grattan Street, Parkville, NSW 3050, Australia. Neurology can cover a wide range of conditions, from memory problems to movement issues, and Samantha’s work focuses on helping people get clear answers and safer care.
Many of the referrals Samantha sees involve dementia. This can include Alzheimer’s disease and other related conditions, such as frontotemporal dementia and vascular dementia. At times, people may also be dealing with rarer forms of dementia, where getting the diagnosis right matters for planning support and treatment.
Samantha also works with families and patients where movement disorders are a big part of daily life. Conditions like Huntington disease and other movement-related problems can affect how a person walks, moves, and manages day-to-day activities. Care often needs to be practical, with a plan that fits the person’s routine and symptoms.
Seizures are another area of neurology. Samantha has experience with generalized tonic-clonic seizures, and this can also connect to other neurological issues. In some cases, the cause of symptoms is complex, and care may involve careful review of history and ongoing monitoring.
Alongside the brain conditions most people recognise, some referrals can involve genetic or rare disease groups. This may include conditions such as Friedreich ataxia and Niemann-Pick disease, as well as other neurological syndromes. At times, symptoms can overlap, which is why a steady, organised approach is important.
Samantha also looks after people with certain neuropsychiatric conditions. This can include bipolar disorder (BPD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and schizophrenia, especially when there are also brain-related symptoms that need medical attention. Neurotoxicity syndromes and other related issues may be part of the picture too, depending on the cause and the pattern of symptoms.
Education and training details are not listed in the current profile. Clinical trial information isn’t provided either. What is clear is the focus on real-world neurological care, supporting people and their carers through changes that can be tough to live with.
