Each of Wellstar’s pulmonologists, certified in their field, have the knowledge and skill needed to diagnose and treat conditions affecting the lungs and breathing, including asthma, bronchitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), emphysema, pneumonia, respiratory failure, lung cancer, pulmonary hypertension and sleep apnea. In addition, some of our providers have special training in sleep medicine, rare pulmonary diseases, interventional pulmonology and critical care.

Our philosophy starts with taking a comprehensive approach to care, incorporating the latest state-of-the-art technology and following best practices as outlined by the leading medical associations dedicated to pulmonary medicine, including the American College of Chest Physicians, Society for Critical Care Medicine and the American Thoracic Society.

From your initial visit through diagnosis to treatment and continuing care, you can feel confident—at every level—about your pulmonary well-being with Wellstar.
