About Us


 

Our Founder

ASSOC. PROF. DR. JOHN MALOUF

Dr. John Malouf is a distinguished and highly regarded ENT Surgeon and is renowned for his treatment of OSA. His research and publications
have not only enriched the academic community but have also influenced and shaped industry practices. Dr. Malouf created SleepGP as he believes OSA can and should be diagnosed and managed within a GP practice where the patient can be monitored by the healthcare professionals patients know best, their General Practitioner. Dr Malouf’s approach to the treatment of OSA is very different to many ENT surgeons as surgery is so often not the first point of call for his patients with a new OSA diagnosis. Dr Malouf believes whilst some airway surgery for OSA is permanently effective most will fail in time and agrees that CPAP is the “gold standard” treatment for OSA. In addition to his professional accomplishments, Dr. Malouf is dedicated to mentoring the next generation of Doctors and fostering a culture of continuous learning. His passion for providing the best patient care further underscores his commitment to making a positive and lasting impact beyond the confines
of his professional endeavours.
