All Pulmonary Disease Specialist

A pulmonary disease specialist is a medical doctor who specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases and conditions that affect the lungs and respiratory system. These may include chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, pneumonia, lung cancer, and other conditions that affect breathing and lung function. Pulmonary disease specialists may work in hospitals, clinics, or private practice, and they use a variety of diagnostic tools such as lung function tests, X-rays, CT scans, and bronchoscopy to diagnose and monitor respiratory diseases. Treatment options may include medication, oxygen therapy, pulmonary rehabilitation, or surgery, and pulmonary disease specialists work closely with other medical professionals such as primary care physicians, oncologists, and surgeons to provide comprehensive care for their patients.
