Selma P. Wiertsema is an Otolaryngologist based in Perth, working from 35 Stirling Highway, Perth, WA 6009, Australia.
In ENT work, the small problems can quickly turn into bigger worries. Selma looks after people with issues related to the ears and the throat, especially when things get uncomfortable, painful, or keep coming back.
She commonly sees patients with ear infections, including otitis and otitis media with effusion (often called “glue ear”). In many cases, treatment is about getting symptoms under control and helping with sound and comfort as the area settles.
Throat complaints are also a big part of her day-to-day practice. This can include strep throat, tonsillitis, and related throat infections.
Sometimes people come in because they’re dealing with inflammation, fever, sore swallowing, or ongoing irritation. Over time, having a clear plan matters, so you know what to watch for and what the next step is.
Selma also works with patients who need review for other infections that can affect breathing and the upper airway, including pertussis and (in some situations) malaria. These are not the only reasons people attend, but they do show up in ENT and urgent care pathways.
When an ear issue doesn’t clear as expected, a procedure may be discussed. Selma can support care that includes myringotomy, where appropriate, as part of managing certain ear conditions.
Experience matters in ENT, and Selma’s work is focused on helping patients manage these common and sometimes recurring conditions, from the first visit through to follow-up.
Education details and any research background aren’t listed here, so there isn’t much to say beyond her role as an otolaryngologist.
Clinical trial information is also not provided. If you’re looking for a specific type of trial or study involvement, it’s best to ask the clinic directly for the most current details.
