Dr. Robert A. D. Wilson focuses his outpatient practice on sleep disorders, including sleep apnea, insomnia, parasomnias, central disorders of hypersomnolence and sleep-related movement disorders. He notes that many people feel unwell for a long time without knowing that it's due to poor-quality sleep. He finds it especially rewarding to help these patients identify the problem, treat it, and see drastic improvements in their quality of life.
He also diagnoses and treats pulmonary disorders including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, interstitial lung disease (ILD) and lung cancer, and performs procedures such as thoracentesis, bronchoscopy, and endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS).
Dr. Wilson also provides inpatient care at Holy Redeemer Hospital on the pulmonary consult service and in the intensive care unit. Regardless of the setting, he works as part of a multidisciplinary team to simplify care for patients, devising management plans that maximize benefit with the least possible risk for harm or adverse effects.
A native of Canada, Dr. Wilson graduated with a bachelor's degree with honors in health sciences from the University of Ottawa. He earned his medical degree from the Saba University School of Medicine in the Dutch Caribbean. He is board certified in the United States in internal medicine, pulmonary medicine and critical care medicine. He is board eligible in sleep medicine and will be pursuing board certification in obesity medicine in 2024.
Outside of work, Dr. Wilson enjoys spending time with his wife and children. He also likes to exercise, read and play guitar in his spare time.
