Pediatric Pulmonology & Sleep Medicine

General Pulmonary Clinic

Our team of Pediatric Pulmonology physicians offers comprehensive treatment for children and adolescents with pulmonary, respiratory and sleep disorders.  Our general pulmonary clinics are a good starting point for parents seeking evaluation of their child for undiagnosed or unexplained breathing problems, or for a second opinion regarding a previously diagnosed breathing problem.  The list of symptoms and diseases we evaluate and treat includes:

  • Asthma
  • Bronchopulmonary dysplasia
  • Chronic cough
  • Chronic lung disease
  • Congenital lung disorders
  • Exercise intolerance
  • Pneumonia (recurrent, aspiration, etc.)
  • Recurrent or chronic cough/wheezing
  • Respiratory disorders/diseases of prematurity
  • Respiratory failure
  • Restrictive lung disease
  • Respiratory disorders due to scoliosis
  • Shortness of breath
  • Sleep disordered breathing (e.g., snoring, obstructive sleep apnea)
