A NOTE FROM
Professor Alexandra Sinclair
I offer expert diagnosis and management across a focused range of complex headache and neurological conditions. With over a decade of consultant-level experience and an internationally recognised clinical research profile, I bring both clinical depth and scientific rigour to the care of each patient.
The conditions listed here represent areas where I have developed particular expertise, many of which are underserved by general neurology services and require a specialist approach to achieve accurate diagnosis and effective treatment. Whether you are seeking answers for the first time or have been living with a long-standing condition without adequate relief, this page sets out the areas in which I can offer focused, evidence-based support.
