Who we are
Sleep and Lung Care is a specialist respiratory and sleep medicine practice in Melbourne, established and run by experienced respiratory and sleep physicians. Our doctors are committed to the best possible care for patients with all aspects of respiratory and sleep disorders — from urgent review to the long-term management of chronic conditions.
We provide a comprehensive service: specialist consultations, peri-operative respiratory care, bulk billed lung function tests and home sleep studies. We serve the unmet need of the wider community of Melbourne’s northern suburbs and give general practitioners the specialist support they need, with five clinics in Epping, Brunswick, Doncaster East, Braybrook and Kilmore.
Where our doctors work
Our physicians are staff specialists in the Department of Respiratory Medicine at the Northern Hospital, the Royal Melbourne Hospital, Footscray Hospital, the Alfred Hospital and the Austin Hospital. They also hold admitting rights at John Fawkner Private Hospital, Northern Private Hospital, Northpark Private Hospital, Warringal Private Hospital and Mitcham Private Hospital.
Urgent and complex care
Our Rapid Access Clinic sees patients with a lung nodule or lung mass, or an acute respiratory condition, who need to be seen urgently. Our doctors also perform bronchoscopy in private and public hospitals.
Our lung function laboratory
Our state-of-the-art respiratory function laboratory is run by experienced respiratory scientists who perform the full range of complex lung function tests, including bronchial provocation testing.
Our team
A friendly, dedicated team — practice manager, receptionists and respiratory and sleep scientists — supports our doctors and our patients.
