Chee H. Ng is a psychiatrist based in Heidelberg, VIC. The clinic address is LTB10, 145 Studley Road, Heidelberg VIC 3084, Australia.
In day-to-day work, Chee looks after adults who are dealing with mental health issues that can make life feel hard to manage. This might include mood problems like major depression and bipolar disorder, or anxiety that keeps coming back, including generalised anxiety disorder. At times, people also come in with symptoms linked to trauma, such as post-traumatic stress disorder, or with stress and worry that won’t really settle.
Sleep is another big part of the picture. Chee helps people who struggle with insomnia, and who feel tired during the day for reasons that are tied to their mood, thoughts, or stress levels. Some patients also need support with conditions that affect how they think and perceive things, including schizophrenia.
Chee also works with people who have ongoing changes in thinking and memory, including dementia and memory loss. There can be a mixed set of symptoms in these cases, and the goal is usually to help people feel safer, more settled, and able to cope day to day.
At times, mental health care also overlaps with movement and neurological symptoms. Chee supports people with conditions like Tourette syndrome, movement disorders, tardive dyskinesia, and drug-induced dyskinesia. The focus is on understanding how symptoms affect comfort, function, and daily routines, not just the label.
Because life events and physical illness can hit mental health hard, Chee may also see people whose mood, sleep, or behaviour changes after serious health events. This can include concerns connected to infections such as COVID-19 and other serious illnesses. There may also be people coping with major medical conditions such as stroke or heart attack, where stress, fear, and recovery can all affect wellbeing.
Overall, the work is practical and calm. Chee aims to listen closely, explain things in plain language, and help map out next steps for support and treatment. Appointments are for adults, and the plan is built around what is happening right now, and what has been going on over time.
