Our respiratory clinics specialize in supporting patients with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Understanding Asthma
Asthma involves chronic inflammation of the airways (bronchi), making them overly sensitive. This can lead to breathing difficulties, coughing, and wheezing. Our specialist asthma nurses are here to:
- Monitor your condition
- Provide personalized advice
- Adjust treatment as needed
- Answer any questions you may have
Understanding COPD
COPD is an umbrella term for lung conditions (including chronic bronchitis and emphysema) that cause persistent breathing difficulties. The main cause is long-term lung damage, often due to smoking, resulting in airflow obstruction.
Our Respiratory Clinics
We offer regular check-ups to:
- Help diagnose asthma or COPD
- Support patients in managing their condition effectively
- Optimize treatment plans
How often should you attend?
We recommend at least one annual review, though more frequent visits may be needed depending on your condition’s severity. You’ll receive an invitation when it’s time for your check-up.
For the best care, keep your appointments and reach out if your symptoms change. Let’s work together to keep your breathing healthy!
