Pulmonary
Function
Testing
We offer advanced diagnostic procedures, including spirometry, bronchodilator challenge, lung volumes and diffusion capacity evaluation.
These vital assessments of your lung function enable us to identify any abnormalities in respiratory airflow, assess the capacity of your lungs, which may be impacted by various lung diseases and evaluate the efficiency of oxygen exchange within your lungs.
Oxygen Therapy
Oxygen is a vital medical intervention, comparable to any other medication. At times, individuals require supplemental oxygen to ensure proper breathing.
However, it is important to note that not everyone experiencing shortness of breath needs oxygen therapy.
Our team can assess whether you require oxygen and, if so, determine the appropriate dosage.
We can also provide assistance in getting a suitable oxygen device to accommodate your specific requirements.
Cardio-pulmonary Exercise Testing (CPET)
A Cardiopulmonary Exercise Test (CPET) is a comprehensive assessment that evaluates your peak exercise capacity, functional threshold and heart and lung function during physical activity. It differs from a traditional cardiac stress test.
The CPET is designed to measure the correlation between heart and lung function during peak exercise and identify any limitations that may exist when a person's exercise capacity is impaired.
This test provides valuable insights into your overall cardiovascular and respiratory health, helping us understand potential impairments or areas for improvement.
Remote Home Monitoring
We partner with innovative companies that use state-of-the-art technologies to enable remote monitoring of our patients on a daily basis.
For individuals with chronic lung conditions, rapid decompensation and substantial deterioration can occur if timely treatment is not administered.
Using wearable monitoring devices enables us to promptly identify these patients, helping prevent critical flare-ups and unnecessary hospital admissions.

Bronchoscopy
Sometimes, a visual examination of the airway becomes necessary in order to detect abnormalities such as cancer, airway constriction, or to collect lung tissue samples.
There are also situations where the retrieval of a foreign object lodged in the airway or special genetic sampling is necessary for diagnosing various lung diseases.
We are here to provide our assistance and expertise in these situations.
Advance
Asthma
Care
If you are experiencing asthma symptoms despite having tried various inhalers and nebulizer therapies as prescribed by your doctor, we can assess your asthma type and explore advanced therapies designed to specifically target inflammation pathways within your airway tissues.
Our goal is to optimize your asthma control and improve your overall well-being.
In addition to these advanced treatments, simple measures such as providing proper inhaler technique education and identifying potential triggers that may worsen your asthma symptoms can significantly enhance your quality of life.
Preoperative Pulmonary Evaluation
In certain cases, individuals with advanced lung disease require thoughtful evaluation prior to considering major surgery.
Our team can assist you and your doctor in making informed decisions regarding the potential risks and benefits of undergoing surgery, taking into account your specific lung conditions.
We aim to provide the guidance necessary to ensure the most appropriate course of action for your individual circumstances.
