Department of Pulmonology & Respiratory Medicine
Advanced Care for Lung Health: Dedicated to Diagnosing and Treating All Respiratory Conditions.
The Department of Pulmonology (Respiratory Medicine) is a specialized unit focused on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of diseases affecting the lungs, airways, and chest. Our team of expert Pulmonologists provides comprehensive care for both acute illnesses and chronic lung conditions.
We are equipped with state-of-the-art diagnostic tools, including a full Pulmonary Function Testing (PFT) lab, Video Bronchoscopy, and dedicated facilities for sleep studies. This allows us to accurately diagnose complex conditions like Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD), severe COPD, and lung infections.
Our approach emphasizes long-term disease management, patient education (especially for asthma and COPD), and providing cutting-edge solutions for sleep disorders and respiratory emergencies within our Critical Care Unit.
Core Respiratory Services
Diagnostic Bronchoscopy
Using flexible video scopes for airway examination, foreign body removal, and accurate lung tissue sampling (biopsy).
Pulmonary Function Testing
Comprehensive PFT/Spirometry to measure lung capacity and air flow, essential for diagnosing COPD and asthma.
Sleep Medicine Lab
Polysomnography (Sleep Study) for the diagnosis and management of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA).
Respiratory Critical Care
Expert management of respiratory failure, acute lung injury (ARDS), and difficult-to-ventilate patients in the ICU.
Conditions We Treat
Our specialized Pulmonology team manages the full spectrum of pulmonary disorders, from common respiratory infections to rare and complex lung diseases.
Advanced Diagnostic and Therapeutic Facilities
Video Bronchoscopy Unit
High-definition imaging for precision diagnostics of airway pathology and targeted biopsy.
Dedicated PFT Lab
Equipped for Spirometry, Lung Volumes, and Diffusion Capacity (DLCO) measurements.
Polysomnography (Sleep Lab)
Full overnight monitoring for diagnosing sleep-disordered breathing and initiating CPAP therapy.
Thoracoscopy Procedures
Minimally invasive keyhole surgery for diagnosing and treating diseases of the pleural space (chest cavity lining).
Respiratory Rehabilitation Program
Structured physical therapy and education to improve quality of life for chronic lung disease patients.
Allergy & Immunology Testing
Detailed testing to identify environmental and food triggers for asthma and allergic lung diseases.
