Overview.

Our pulmonology team cares for the lungs and breathing, from asthma and COPD through to interstitial lung disease, sleep apnoea and lung cancer screening. A modern bronchoscopy suite supports diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, and an on-site sleep laboratory offers polysomnography with same-week reporting. Lung-cancer suspicion is fast-tracked through a structured pathway with on-site CT and biopsy.
