Dr Esther Tantsis is a Paediatric Neurologist based in Westmead, NSW. She works from Suite 9, Level 1, Cnr Hawkesbury Road and Hainsworth Street, Westmead NSW 2145. The focus is on kids and families, especially when a child’s nervous system needs a careful look.
In her clinic, Dr Tantsis helps with the evaluation and management of seizures. This can include first-time events, ongoing seizure control, and sorting out what might be driving the episodes in a child who is otherwise growing and developing. She also looks after children who have developmental delays. In many cases, it’s about making sense of what’s happening, what to watch for, and the next steps that can help.
Headaches in children are another common reason families come in. These can look different from adult headaches, and they can come with other symptoms. Dr Tantsis aims to keep things practical—working through patterns, triggers, and the right way to assess what’s going on, so the plan feels clear and manageable for home life.
She also supports children with neurodevelopmental disorders. At times, this involves checking how a child is progressing across learning, behaviour, movement, and daily functioning. The goal isn’t just to label a condition. It’s to set up treatment and support that fits the child, and to help parents and carers feel more confident about what to do next.
Dr Tantsis brings experience in paediatric neurology and works closely with families through the ups and downs that can come with uncertain symptoms. For many households, appointments can be stressful. She keeps the process calm and steady, and she explains things in plain language so families know what’s happening and why.
Her education is grounded in paediatric neurology training, with a focus on safe, evidence-based care for children. She also stays up to date with current treatment approaches, so the care plan can reflect what’s working best for kids today.
Research and clinical trials: no specific public clinical trial details are listed here. But Dr Tantsis keeps an eye on new guidance and treatment ideas that may help in the future.
Languages: Dr Tantsis speaks English and Greek, which can help some families feel more comfortable during appointments.
