Canterbury Neurology is a specialist comprehensive service for patients with complex movement disorders such as Parkinson's disease. We offer the latest methods of investigation including at-home accelerometer based testing and detailed cognitive screening. We offer guidance and implementation of all available advanced therapies for Parkinson's disease including pump therapies and deep brain stimulation. We accept referrals from general practitioners, neurologists and other specialists. We routinely offer a further opinion for those patients whose disease is not responding to their current treatments. Hospital-based care including deep brain stimulation surgery is undertaken in association with a multidisciplinary team at the Epworth Hospital, Richmond. Canterbury Neurology is unique for offering a dedicated nurse as a point of contact for correspondence between consultations with your neurologist. Due to our focus on remaining available to our current patients and the need to prioritise patients who will benefit from the service we offer, all referrals are triaged by the neurologist in the same week they are received and a detailed response is provided.
Dr. Richard Blazé

Dr. Blazé is a rostered neurologist with admitting rights at the Epworth Hospital, Richmond. He has a particular interest in helping patients with more complex Parkinson's disease to determine whether device-assisted therapies such as deep brain stimulation (DBS) and infusion therapies will be beneficial and to help implement the right treatment for each individual patient.
Dr. Blazé graduated in medicine & surgery at The University of Melbourne in 2006. Training in general medicine and neurology was subsequently completed at The Royal Melbourne Hospital and St. Vincent’s Hospital. Dr. Blazé returned to The Royal Melbourne Hospital in 2014 for a 3-year fellowship working in the movement disorders unit. In 2017 Dr. Blazé moved to Paris, France where he trained in deep brain stimulation (DBS) at the Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital in Paris for 12 months.
