Obstructive Lung Disease Clinic

About Our Practice

Obstructive Lung Disease

The obstructive lung disease (OLD) clinic sees patients with asthma, chronic obstructive lung disease, emphysema, chronic bronchitis, and other diseases characterized by airway narrowing or obstruction. We can provide short-term consultation to establish or review a treatment plan, offer second opinions, or longitudinal care. The clinic team will assess for disease severity, design a personalized treatment plan, and arrange for pulmonary rehabilitation, home oxygen, smoking cessation, dietary counseling, or other therapies as deemed appropriate. 

As part of a multidisciplinary team, we work together to care for patients in various stages of disease severity. By using innovative technology and offering newly approved medications, we are able to provide the most advanced treatment options.
