People on the Mid North Coast with respiratory or sleep problems are now able to visit specialist Dr Andrew Burgess in Port Macquarie.
Dr Burgess spent 2020 completing a Sleep Fellowship with Dr Stuart Miller at the Canberra Sleep Clinic. He said his training as a sleep specialist complements his respiratory specialisation.
‘I think there’s a large demand for sleep physicians given the association with obesity, co-morbidity and age,’ Dr Burgess said.
‘We’re understanding more and more about the implications of sleep apnoea and ‘poor’ sleep on general health and associated co-morbidities. I think there is an opportunity to improve patients’ outcomes.’
