When needed, pulmonary physicians consult with an interdisciplinary group of specialists including cardiologists, anesthesiologists, surgeons, interventional radiologists and internists.
Our physicians remain committed to participation in the development of new medications and surgical methods to treat pulmonary disease. Patients rest assured in their access to the most current treatment plans, and comprehensive patient support programs.
Comprehensive pulmonary care is available at Scripps Clinic.
