Signs worth checking

Is it worth seeing a pulmonologist?

Breathing problems get dismissed as allergies or being out of shape more often than they should. If any of these sound familiar, it is worth having evaluated.

Shortness of breath

Getting winded during activity that never used to bother you, or feeling breathless at rest.

Chronic cough

A cough that lingers for weeks without a clear cause, or keeps coming back.

Wheezing

A whistling sound when breathing, especially with exertion or at night.

Reduced exercise tolerance

Activities that used to be routine now leave you unusually winded or fatigued.

Frequent asthma flare-ups

Needing a rescue inhaler more often than expected, or symptoms that are not well controlled.

A smoking history

Current or former smokers are worth screening for COPD even without obvious symptoms yet.

Testing

Pulmonary function tests explain what is actually happening

Pulmonary function tests measure how well your lungs move air and exchange oxygen, and they are what separates asthma from COPD from something else entirely.

Pulmonary function tests (PFTs)

A straightforward breathing test that measures lung capacity and airflow, done in the office without an overnight stay.

Pre-operative and OSA evaluation

We also handle pulmonary pre-operative clearance and evaluate for obstructive sleep apnea when the two conditions overlap, which they often do.

We also offer smoking cessation counseling as part of pulmonary care, since it is one of the most effective steps for improving long-term lung function.
