Sydney Respiratory Specialist Clinic

From manageable conditions to chronic and life-threatening diseases, Sydney Respiratory Specialist Clinic is committed to providing exceptional care for all respiratory and sleep-related issues.

Founded in 2017 by Dr. Samantha Herath, a leading adult respiratory and sleep specialist, the clinic has since grown into a renowned center for comprehensive respiratory and sleep care. Dr. Herath completed her post-fellowship training in sleep medicine at the esteemed Woolcock Institute of Sleep Medicine and holds a Master’s Degree in Sleep Medicine from the University of Sydney. She also undertook a 12-month fellowship at the prestigious McGill University in Montreal, specializing in interventional bronchoscopy, and earned a PhD from the University of Sydney, focusing on minimally invasive bronchoscopy for diagnosing lung nodules in lung cancer.

Located within the Parkway SAN Clinic at Wahroonga, we are dedicated to providing high-quality care for a broad range of respiratory conditions. Our team now consists of four highly skilled respiratory specialists, each with specialized expertise in Respiratory and Sleep Medicine. All are fellowship-trained with the Royal Australian College of Physicians.

We also have two accredited respiratory scientists working in our fully equipped lung function laboratory, along with two sleep therapists and an accredited cardiopulmonary physiotherapist, ensuring comprehensive care for every patient.

At Sydney Respiratory Specialist Clinic, we offer consultations, diagnostic tests, treatment, and management plans for conditions such as lung cancer, interventional bronchoscopy including EBUS, sleep disorders (including CPAP clinic), asthma, COPD, bronchiectasis, interstitial lung disease, and more. We provide home sleep studies and consultations with sleep specialists to accurately diagnose sleep disorders.

Our lung function testing suite includes spirometry, lung volumes, asthma and allergy testing, exercise testing, and fitness testing for professions such as police, fire, and mining. These tests help diagnose respiratory conditions and monitor lung function.

Our mission is to deliver personalized medicine and excellence in clinical care, taking the time to understand each patient and provide compassionate, comprehensive care.
