Our Services
During
your initial visit, you will receive a complete history and physical
examination and any appropriate laboratory work, chest x-rays or
breathing tests that the doctor feels are necessary will be arranged. If you have already
had any x-rays or CT scans, please bring a copy of the study to the
appointment. The initial visit will allow the doctor to assess your
health needs and establish a treatment plan. Follow up visits will
address the progress of your lung disease and review any test results. A
complete report is sent to your referring physician.
