Andre G. Schultz is a pulmonologist based in Nedlands, WA. His practice is at 15 Hospital Avenue, Nedlands, WA 6009, Australia.
Breathing issues can be scary, and they can also be frustrating when symptoms keep coming back. Andre works with adults and children who deal with long-term lung problems, as well as people who need help after a flare-up or a sudden change in breathing.
Common reasons people seek care include asthma and asthma in children, chronic cough, and bronchitis. At times, symptoms like wheeze, tightness in the chest, or a cough that hangs around can be linked to something more specific. Andre looks at patterns over time, not just one bad day.
He also helps with conditions such as bronchiectasis, cystic fibrosis, and ciliary dyskinesia-related bronchiectasis. These can affect how mucus clears from the airways, which may lead to repeated infections, extra breathlessness, and ongoing chest symptoms. In many cases, the focus is on improving day-to-day breathing and reducing how often things flare.
Some patients are dealing with stridor, which is a noisy breathing sound that can happen when airflow is partly blocked. Andre understands this can show up in different situations, and it’s important to check what’s causing it, especially if it’s new or getting worse.
There are also lung conditions related to infections and inflammation. Andre sees patients with aspergillosis and acute interstitial pneumonia. These are not the same as a typical cold, so people often need a clear plan for what to do next and how to monitor recovery.
While there’s no quick fix for every lung condition, good care is about the right steps for the right situation. Andre takes a calm, practical approach, aiming to make the next move feel clear and manageable. Treatment can involve working through symptoms, lung health checks, and helping patients understand what to watch for at home.
In clinical care, lung problems can overlap. For example, someone might come in with a chronic cough and later find it’s connected to asthma, bronchiectasis, or another airway issue. Andre works through those links carefully, so the plan matches what’s actually happening.
Andre’s work in respiratory care includes managing a range of conditions, from ongoing airway problems to acute episodes. If you’re unsure what your symptoms might mean, he can help sort through the possibilities and guide the next steps.
