"As someone with asthma, I take a special interest in integrating lifestyle changes with medical management to help control chronic lung conditions. I enjoy partnering with patients to try and optimize quality of life, and tailor each treatment regimen to their specific needs. I am trained in Pulmonary Medicine, and perform bronchoscopy when indicated to help evaluate certain lung conditions, as well as utilize lung function testing for diagnosis and continued management. I also work with patients on exercise and deep breathing techniques as well as inhaler education.  I am interested in emerging treatments for chronic lung disease, and empowering patients to work with me to improve their symptoms."
