Helping Kids Breathe Their Best
Pediatric pulmonologists treat breathing and airway issues. This includes childhood lung diseases like asthma, breathing problems in children with muscle conditions and cystic fibrosis. We also treat infections and other problems that affect breathing.聽
We test and treat kids in unique ways and in family-friendly settings. We work closely with respiratory therapists, who provide breathing therapy. Lung and airway issues can affect many parts of kids鈥 bodies. That鈥檚 why we partner with surgeons and other specialists.
