"Patients come to see me with symptoms concerning them such as a persistent cough, breathlessness, chest discomfort or excessive daytime sleepiness.

​

A thorough assessment is undertaken and if necessary further tests are organised such as chest X-Ray or blood tests. Sometimes other investigations such as CT scan, bronchoscopy or sleep study are arranged to help provide a diagnosis for treatment."
