Eleanor C. Majellano is a pulmonologist based in New Lambton Heights, NSW. She looks after people who have breathing problems, with a big focus on asthma. If your chest feels tight, you’re wheezing, coughing a lot, or getting short of breath at night or with exercise, she’s there to help you work out what’s going on and what to do next.
Asthma can be different for different people. In many cases, it flares up when the weather changes, when you catch a virus, or around dust, smoke, or other triggers. Sometimes symptoms don’t settle as expected, even when you’re doing the usual things. Eleanor helps patients make sense of their pattern of symptoms and gives clear, practical steps to reduce flare-ups.
As a respiratory doctor, she spends time thinking about how your lungs are behaving day to day, not just the worst day. That might include looking at inhaler use, reviewing your current plan, and talking through what triggers you’ve noticed. At times, breathlessness can overlap with other issues, so she also helps sort out what fits best, and what needs further checks.
Over time, good asthma care is not only about medicine. It’s also about confidence and routine. Eleanor aims to keep things calm and straightforward, so appointments don’t feel overwhelming. She explains things in simple terms and makes sure the next steps are clear, including what to do if symptoms get worse.
Her experience is built around day-to-day respiratory care, especially for asthma. She also keeps her practice grounded in current evidence and updated asthma guidance, so treatment decisions are based on what’s been working for people and what the latest guidance says. While she may not run clinical trials through her practice, she stays up to date with changes in asthma care as they come along.
Eleanor’s medical education and respiratory training guide how she approaches breathing health. If you’re dealing with asthma that’s not under control, or you’re just trying to understand your symptoms better, you can expect a thoughtful, practical discussion and a plan you can follow.
