Justin G. Lees is a neurologist based in Sydney, NSW, Australia. He helps people who are dealing with nervous system issues, where symptoms can feel confusing or hard to explain. Neurological problems can affect movement, feeling, and everyday comfort, so it helps to have a calm, practical approach.
Justin works with patients who may be experiencing long-lasting nerve pain or flare-ups that come and go. This can include neuralgia and peripheral neuropathy, where you might notice burning, tingling, numbness, or a prickly “pins and needles” feeling. At times, symptoms can also be linked to nerve damage after an illness, an injury, or ongoing health issues.
Some people also come in with concerns related to CACH syndrome. Others may be referred after possible neurotoxicity syndromes, where the nervous system is affected by something in the body or from medical treatments. Justin also looks after patients who have symptoms connected to splenomegaly, working to understand what’s going on and what the next steps should be.
In many cases, the goal is to figure out the cause of the symptoms and then map out a sensible plan. That might mean organising tests, reviewing medication, and checking other health factors that could be making things worse. Neurology isn’t always one clear answer, so it often takes time to piece it together.
Justin focuses on listening to what’s happening day to day, not just the headline diagnosis. People can live with nerve pain for a long time, and it can wear you down. Having a doctor who can explain things in plain language, and who takes a steady approach, can make a big difference.
He stays up to date with changes in neurology care and uses evidence-based methods as they apply to each person. If a patient is involved in any clinical trial or research pathway, it’s handled carefully and clearly, with the right information discussed early on. The main thing is keeping care grounded, organised, and focused on what the patient needs next.
