Manoj P. Menezes is a neurologist based in Sydney, NSW, Australia. Neurology is the branch of medicine that looks after the brain, nerves, spinal cord, and how messages move through the body. Dr Menezes works with people of different ages, including children and young adults, where there may be long-term or complex neurological conditions.
In many cases, the kinds of problems seen in his practice involve nerves and muscles, or the way the nervous system controls movement. This can include peripheral neuropathy, muscle weakness, and conditions linked to nerve signalling. Some patients may be dealing with genetic or developmental conditions, where early support and clear monitoring matter over time.
Seizures are another important part of the picture. Dr Menezes treats epilepsy and different seizure types, including absence seizures and generalised tonic-clonic seizures. Some people also have hearing loss along with other neurological symptoms, and at times there can be movement issues such as movement disorders and cramp-fasciculation symptoms.
He also sees people with conditions that affect movement and muscle control, such as primary lateral sclerosis, spinal muscular atrophy (including type 2 and type 3), and Duchenne muscular dystrophy. There are also situations where hypotonia and movement problems show up together, and where families need a steady plan for how to manage symptoms day to day.
Some referrals involve brain or nerve inflammation or infection, such as encephalitis. Other cases can include drug-related movement problems, like drug induced dyskinesia. There are also rare and specific diagnoses listed in the profile, including conditions like CHARGE syndrome, Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome, trisomy 13, and various chromosome-related and congenital syndromes.
When it comes to experience, the specific years and work history aren’t listed in this profile. Education details are also not provided here. At times, this kind of information is kept for clinic records, so it’s worth checking directly if you need exact training or qualifications for a particular question.
There is no clear detail here about research activities or clinical trials. If clinical trials or the latest options are something you’re wondering about, the best next step is to ask the clinic team what is currently available in Sydney and how it might apply to your situation.
