About of Cindy Thamrin

Cindy Thamrin is a Pulmonologist based in Sydney, working from 431 Glebe Point Road, Sydney, NSW, Australia. She looks after people with breathing problems, from kids to adults, and she focuses on getting the basics right: clear breathing, the right medicines, and good follow-up.


In many cases, her patients are managing long-term lung conditions. That can include asthma, COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease), and emphysema. These conditions can flare up at times, and they can make everyday life feel harder. Cindy helps people understand what might trigger symptoms and what can be done to keep things steady.


She also treats breathing issues linked to eosinophils, which are a type of white blood cell. This can show up as eosinophilic asthma, eosinophilic pneumonia, chronic eosinophilic pneumonia, and hypereosinophilic syndrome. When these conditions are involved, the right diagnosis and a focused treatment plan really matter, because the symptoms can look similar to other lung problems.


For some families, the care needed is for babies and infants. Cindy works with patients who have infantile apnea and issues that can happen in premature infants. Breathing can be unpredictable in these early stages, so care often needs to be calm, careful, and practical for parents and carers.


Sleep breathing is another area she supports. Central sleep apnea can affect how someone breathes during sleep, and it can lead to tiredness and poor sleep quality. Cindy works through what’s going on and helps plan next steps for better breathing at night.


Some patients also come in with more complex respiratory problems, including cystic fibrosis. And at times, she sees people for symptoms like stridor, which is a noisy breathing sound that can happen when airflow is affected in the upper airway.


Cindy’s clinic work is about more than just treating symptoms. It’s also about listening to what’s changing, keeping track of test results, and making sure the treatment plan fits the person in front of her. That approach can make a real difference, especially when symptoms come and go over time.
