Jacqueline Huvanandana is a pulmonologist based at 431 Glebe Point Road, Sydney, NSW, Australia.
She looks after people with breathing problems, with a big focus on lungs and how they work day to day. This can include asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and other ongoing lung issues. For many families, breathing care is not just “medical” either. It affects sleep, school, work, and everyday energy, so appointments often feel practical and down to earth.
Jacqueline also cares for babies and young children, including premature infants and concerns like infantile apnea. Breathing patterns in infants can be worrying for parents. In many cases, getting the right plan early helps reduce uncertainty and supports safer breathing. Care for babies is handled carefully, with a lot of attention to symptoms, triggers, and what to watch for at home.
With asthma, visits usually centre on helping people manage flare-ups and keep control of symptoms. With COPD, the focus is often on day-to-day breathing, reducing flare-ups when possible, and making sure inhalers and treatment plans are set up in a way that fits real life. At times, this may involve reviewing how symptoms have been tracking, checking what changes could be helping, and adjusting support to suit what’s happening now.
Jacqueline works with patients and families to make sense of breathing tests and treatment steps, without making things too complicated. Clear explanations matter, especially when you are dealing with children or when breathing problems come and go. The aim is to help you feel more confident about the next steps, even if symptoms are still being worked out.
