Belinda Mclean is a Pediatric Neurologist based in Perth, WA. She looks after children who need help with brain and nerve conditions that can affect movement, balance, and day to day skills.
In clinic, she works with families to understand what is going on and what can be done next. For some kids, the challenges show up early and keep changing as they grow. For others, things become clearer after tests and careful follow up over time. Belinda focuses on getting a clear plan, not just a name for the condition.
Her work covers conditions such as Alternating Hemiplegia of Childhood, hemiplegia, cerebral palsy, and spastic diplegia (infantile type). These can look different from child to child. Some children have tight muscles, stiffness, or issues with walking. Others may deal with weakness or changes in how their body works. At times, there can be other concerns too, and that’s when coordinating care really matters.
Belinda also helps explain what families can expect as their child develops. This might include how symptoms can change, what signs to watch for, and how treatment choices fit into everyday life. She takes a calm approach and tries to keep information practical and understandable, especially when parents and carers are dealing with a lot at once.
Care doesn’t happen in isolation. She typically works alongside other health professionals involved in a child’s support, such as allied health teams and paediatric services. That teamwork helps make sure the treatment plan lines up across therapies, follow ups, and any additional investigations that may be needed.
If your child has a neurological condition like those listed above, Belinda Mclean can offer specialist paediatric input to support diagnosis, ongoing management, and longer term planning. She aims for steady, real-world care for kids and their families in Perth.
