Common pulmonary diseases we handle include:
Asthma
Our specialty is finding the right combination of drugs, refining medication plans, and managing complex cases to include the latest therapies for asthma. Our care includes periodic testing and patient education to improve quality of life.
COPD
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which includes chronic bronchitis and emphysema, is a time-consuming and complex disease to manage. Our specialized nursing care helps patients navigate the complex process needed for a speedy diagnosis and lifelong management.
Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD)
This broad group of diseases, which includes idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and nonspecific interstitial pneumonitis, can mimic COPD and other pulmonary diseases, rendering diagnosis difficult. Bronchoscopy, biopsy and other diagnostic testing may be needed.
