About of Elyse Passmore

Elyse Passmore is a Paediatric Neurologist based in Parkville, VIC. You’ll find her at 50 Flemington Road, Parkville, VIC 3052, Australia. Her work is focused on helping children and families when movement and nerve signals affect everyday life.


In many cases, she looks after kids with conditions that can change how the body moves. This can include cerebral palsy, spasticity, and spastic diplegia (infantile type). She also supports children with hemiplegia and problems that affect how one side of the body works.


Some referrals come because of muscle tightness and contracture deformity, where tendons and muscles can feel stiff over time. Others are about walking and foot movement, such as foot drop. At times, she also helps manage alternating hemiplegia of childhood, which can cause changes in muscle control as a child grows.


There are also situations linked to medicines, where movement can become harder to control. Elyse Passmore works with conditions like drug-induced dyskinesia, and this may involve planning care alongside other health professionals.


Because children’s needs change as they grow, care often comes down to making practical plans. That might mean focusing on range of movement, comfort, and function, and helping families understand what to expect. Where procedures are part of the plan, you may see terms such as tenotomy or osteotomy mentioned in care discussions. There can also be complex movement patterns, and ongoing support is usually important.


Experience and education details are not listed here, so it’s best to check directly if you’d like specifics about training history or how long she’s been working in paediatric neurology. Research and clinical trial information also isn’t provided in the details available, so if that’s something you want to explore, the clinic can usually point you in the right direction.
