Respiratory conditions - Epsom Hospital

We offer a patient-focused service for children requiring a specialist paediatric respiratory opinion, as close to home as possible.

Our asthma clinics are run in conjunction with Liz Phillips (asthma nurse) who can offer home visits to help optimise asthma control.

Dr Ruth Charlton runs a specialist paediatric respiratory clinic and also conducts clinics jointly, at Epsom, with visiting experts from the Royal Brompton Hospital.

We function as a shared care centre for children with cystic fibrosis (CF), meaning that they can get expert care and expert opinions, without having to travel to London.

Families have the choice of sharing care with either Queen Mary's hospital for Children or the Royal Brompton. We run joint clinics at Epsom with the CF team from the Brompton and are able to offer admission, at Epsom, when required to all our children with cystic fibrosis.

We offer specialised lung function tests (spirometry) to all children in our respiratory clinics during the clinic visit.
