Pulmonology
What is a Pulmonology Doctor?
A Pulmonologist (commonly referred to as a Lung Doctor or Lung Specialist) is a medical doctor that specializes in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of illnesses, conditions, and diseases affecting the lungs and breathing (the respiratory system).
Common conditions treated by a Pulmonologist range from chronic cough to lung diseases, such as cystic fibrosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pulmonary fibrosis, and more.

Why choose an UberDoc Specialist for your Pulmonology needs?
A pulmonologist treats diseases of the lungs and respiratory system including asthma, COPD, chronic bronchitis, pulmonary fibrosis, sleep apnea, lung cancer, pneumonia, and pulmonary hypertension.
See a pulmonologist if your breathing problems are poorly controlled, you have a chronic lung condition requiring specialist management, you experience recurrent lung infections, or you need pulmonary function testing or bronchoscopy.
A pulmonologist may perform spirometry, lung function tests, chest X-rays, CT scans, bronchoscopy, sleep studies, and arterial blood gas analysis to accurately assess lung health and diagnose respiratory conditions.
