Patria A. Hume is a Neurologist based in Perth, WA, working from 35 Stirling Highway, Perth, WA 6009, Australia.
Neurology can sound big and complicated, but in the clinic it’s usually about real, everyday problems. Patria looks after people who are dealing with changes in how the brain and nervous system work. This can happen after an injury, with stroke, or when symptoms linger after a head problem.
Many patients come in after concussion, especially when symptoms don’t settle as expected. At times, that can include headaches, dizziness, sleep changes, trouble focusing, or feeling “not quite right”. Patria helps people make sense of what’s going on and what the next steps might be.
Stroke is another key part of the work. When someone has had a stroke, early and ongoing care matters. Patria focuses on understanding symptoms, supporting recovery, and helping coordinate a plan that makes life easier day to day. That might involve looking at movement, speech, balance, and brain function, depending on what’s been affected.
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is also a common reason people seek neurology support. Over time, TBI can affect memory, mood, headaches, fatigue, and thinking speed. People often want clear answers, and they want a plan that fits around work, family, and routine. Patria takes a calm approach, talks things through in plain language, and helps patients understand options.
In many cases, treatment is not just about one appointment. It’s about keeping track of symptoms, checking progress, and adjusting as needs change. Patria works with other health professionals when it helps, so patients get support that lines up across different parts of care.
Patria’s experience in neurology comes from handling a range of brain and nervous system conditions, including concussion, stroke, and traumatic brain injury. She also has training in neurology, with a focus on careful assessment and practical next steps.
For people who are worried about what their symptoms mean, or who feel stuck after an injury or sudden change, it can help to have a clinician who listens and explains things clearly. Patria is based in central Perth, and appointments are focused on helping patients move forward, step by step.
