Jennifer L. Perret is a Pulmonologist based in 207 Bouverie St, Carlton, VIC 3053, Australia. She looks after people with breathing problems, both when symptoms pop up suddenly and when they come back over time.
In day-to-day practice, Jennifer works with patients who have conditions like asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and chronic cough. She also helps with lung infections such as pneumonia and ongoing inflammation like interstitial lung disease. At times, this can include concerns related to pleurisy and stridor, where breathing sounds or airflow can change.
Allergies and upper airway issues are often part of the picture too. Jennifer treats allergic rhinitis and issues linked to grass allergy and other triggers, and she may also look at sinusitis when it’s affecting breathing and comfort. Some patients also have related problems that can sit alongside lung symptoms, including obesity, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and insomnia.
Sleep and breathing can overlap as well. Jennifer works with people who have obstructive sleep apnoea and excessive daytime sleepiness, where tiredness can have many causes but breathing is a key part to check.
Work and environment can matter too. She treats people with lung conditions connected to exposure, including occupational asthma, and lung scarring and dust-related illnesses such as coal worker’s pneumoconiosis and silicosis.
There’s a lot she can help with across different ages. The list of conditions she manages includes asthma in children as well as health concerns that can show up in mid-life, like menopause.
