Tobias Strunk is a paediatrician who works out of 374 Bagot Rd, Subiaco, WA 6008. He looks after babies, children, and families when things feel worrying or not quite right. Paediatrics can be a mixed bag, from everyday illnesses to more serious problems that need close attention.
In the clinic, Tobias is well placed to help with concerns in newborns and young infants, especially when infections are involved. This can include neonatal sepsis and Group B strep infection. He also deals with sepsis more broadly, and with issues that can pop up after an infection, like dehydration and gut problems.
Premature babies often need extra monitoring, and Tobias focuses on care for premature infants. He can also help when there are concerns like necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and necrosis. These are not common in every family, but when they happen, families want someone who can explain what’s going on and keep a steady eye on how the baby is doing.
Sometimes the reason for the visit is an infection that affects the throat or breathing. Tobias looks after children with strep throat and parainfluenza. At times, symptoms like fever, poor feeding, or low energy can be the start of it, and the plan is usually about checking the cause early and then acting quickly.
There are also a few other health concerns he treats, including congenital syphilis. He may be involved when doctors are checking unusual findings, such as an enlarged liver, or when an infant has high blood pressure. In many cases, these situations need careful follow-up and clear communication, because families are often trying to understand what the next steps will look like.
If your child is unwell, or you’re dealing with a baby who was born early or is still very young, it helps to have a paediatrician who takes things seriously without making them scary. Tobias Strunk’s approach suits that middle ground: calm, practical care, and a focus on getting the right checks done so you can move forward with more confidence.
