Dr Rivindi Watthayalage is a Respiratory & Sleep Medicine Physician based in Macquarie Park, NSW. You can find the practice at 2 Innovation Road, Macquarie Park NSW 2113.
In clinic, Dr Watthayalage looks after people with breathing and sleep problems. Many patients come in with asthma symptoms, ongoing chest tightness, wheeze, or breathlessness that keeps coming back. At times it’s not just asthma, and in many cases chronic cough is the main issue people want help with.
Sleep can be a big part of overall health, so the care here also covers sleep apnea evaluation. If someone feels very tired in the daytime, snores, or their sleep feels unrefreshing, a sleep review can be a good starting point. Dr Watthayalage focuses on getting a clear picture of what’s going on, then discussing sensible next steps.
Smoking can affect both breathing and sleep, and Dr Watthayalage offers smoking cessation counselling. The aim is to make quitting feel more manageable, with practical advice and support along the way. It’s also helpful for people who are cutting back and want a plan that fits their life.
Diagnosis and treatment are covered across these conditions, including managing asthma, working through long-term cough, and arranging sleep apnea assessment. The approach is calm and straightforward, and it’s centred on what the patient is dealing with day to day.
