Our Services

Our features

The Pulmonology department at Sunrise Hospital offers comprehensive care for a broad spectrum of lung conditions. We provide early diagnosis and effective management of both acute and chronic respiratory illnesses. Our team of experts is skilled in treating conditions such as asthma, COPD, bronchitis, pneumonia, sleep apnea, pulmonary hypertension, and interstitial lung diseases. We also specialize in treating complex respiratory conditions like lung infections, lung fibrosis, and lung cancer.

Our pulmonologists work closely with patients to design personalized treatment plans, focusing on preventive measures to improve long-term respiratory health. We emphasize lifestyle changes, smoking cessation programs, and patient education to empower individuals to take control of their lung health. Additionally, we provide pulmonary rehabilitation programs designed to improve lung function and enhance the quality of life for patients with chronic lung diseases.

Our hospital is equipped with an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for patients with severe respiratory illnesses who require close monitoring and mechanical ventilation. Our team of specialists collaborates with other departments, such as cardiology and oncology, to offer multidisciplinary care for patients with complex conditions like cardio-pulmonary or cancer-related lung diseases.

Our equipment

Sunrise Hospital’s Pulmonology department is equipped with the latest diagnostic and treatment technologies to provide advanced care for lung and respiratory conditions. We offer high-resolution CT scans and chest X-rays to accurately diagnose conditions such as pneumonia, lung cancer, and interstitial lung diseases. Our pulmonary function testing (PFT) equipment allows us to assess lung capacity and airflow, helping to diagnose conditions like asthma, COPD, and restrictive lung diseases.

For more specialized care, we utilize bronchoscopy technology, which enables our pulmonologists to visualize the airways and perform procedures like biopsies, mucus removal, and foreign body extraction. We also offer thoracoscopy to examine the pleura and thoracentesis to drain excess fluid from the lungs in cases of pleural effusion.

In the diagnosis and management of sleep disorders, we offer polysomnography (sleep studies) to monitor patients with sleep apnea and other respiratory-related sleep disorders. We provide CPAP machines to help patients manage sleep apnea and ensure restful, uninterrupted sleep.

Our state-of-the-art ICU is equipped with advanced ventilators and continuous oxygen monitoring systems to provide critical care for patients with severe respiratory illnesses. We also offer nebulizer therapy for patients who need fast-acting relief from asthma attacks or other acute respiratory conditions.

With a commitment to innovation and patient-centered care, the Pulmonology department at Sunrise Hospital is dedicated to improving lung health and offering the highest quality of respiratory care.
