Dr Simone Visser is a Respiratory & Sleep Medicine Physician based in Newtown, NSW. You can find her at Suite 416, Level 4, 100 Carillon Ave, Newtown NSW 2042. Her work is mainly about breathing and sleep—things that can affect your day-to-day life in a big way, even if they started small.
In clinic, Dr Visser looks after people with ongoing breathing problems and sleep issues. That can include asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and ongoing cough that just won’t settle. She also helps with sleep apnoea evaluation and treatment, and she takes smoking cessation counselling seriously. At times, it’s not just one problem either. Many people have more than one issue going on, and the plan needs to fit around their life, not the other way around.
Her approach is practical. She focuses on getting a clear diagnosis first, then making a treatment plan that’s realistic. With asthma and COPD, that might mean reviewing symptoms, checking triggers, and adjusting treatment to help people breathe easier and feel more in control. For chronic cough, she pays attention to patterns and likely causes, so you’re not left guessing. And for sleep apnoea, she helps people understand what the symptoms can mean, and what steps can improve sleep quality and daytime energy.
Dr Visser has clinical experience in respiratory and sleep care, built from regular work with patients who deal with long-term conditions. Her education supports this focus, with training that helps her assess breathing and sleep concerns in a calm, steady way. She also spends time on lifestyle support when it matters, including smoking cessation counselling, because changing habits can make a real difference for lung health over time.
Even when someone feels worried or tired, the goal is to keep things clear and grounded. You’ll usually leave with a better understanding of what’s going on and what happens next. If you’re dealing with asthma, COPD, chronic cough, or sleep apnoea, or you want help with stopping smoking, Dr Simone Visser can help with diagnosis and treatment, and she’ll work with you on a plan that suits.
