The Johns Hopkins Breathlessness Clinic is an interdisciplinary outpatient clinic intended to help support patients with lung conditions and their families.
We have found that patients and their care partners often benefit from extra support and encouragement as they navigate serious respiratory illness.
The Breathlessness Clinic is a full-day clinic each Wednesday and Friday mornings at the Bayview Allergy and Asthma Center. You can decide if you would prefer in person or telemedicine visits.
