Amanda M. Blackmore is a paediatric endocrinologist caring for children in Crawley, WA, at 35 Stirling Hwy, Crawley, WA 6009, Australia. Her work is focused on kids whose bodies need extra support with hormones and development, as well as families who are dealing with complex health needs.
Many of the conditions she looks after involve both the brain and the body. For example, she helps children with hypopituitarism, where hormone levels can be low and growth and energy can be affected. She also supports kids with septo-optic dysplasia, and conditions like alternating hemiplegia of childhood, where movement and muscle control can come and go over time.
She also works with children living with genetic and neurodevelopment conditions. This can include Prader-Willi syndrome and Williams syndrome, where growth patterns, appetite, learning, and overall development can be tricky to manage. In many cases, families need clear, steady guidance so day to day life is a bit more manageable.
Amanda’s clinic care can also be relevant for children with cerebral palsy and spasticity, including spastic diplegia infantile type. She helps families understand how hormone health and growth may fit into the bigger picture, alongside movement and muscle challenges.
There are times when feeding and gut health are part of the story too. Some children she sees have gastroesophageal reflux in infants or issues related to gastroschisis. While these aren’t always hormone problems, getting the whole picture right helps when planning care across different services.
Her training and practice are centred on paediatric endocrinology, with a calm, practical approach that suits children and their carers. Over time, she works with families to make sense of symptoms, track changes as a child grows, and help coordinate care that makes sense for each situation.
Research, publications, and clinical trial details weren’t provided here, but the goal stays the same: support kids with complex needs and help families feel more informed and less stuck.
