Central Health helps you breathe easier with expert lung care

Pulmonology is the medical specialty that focuses on the health of your lungs. Pulmonologists diagnose and treat diseases of the lungs to help you breathe better. This includes conditions like difficulty breathing, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and lung infections.

Services we provide

Our pulmonology and sleep medicine services cover evaluation, diagnosis, and management of:

  • Asthma
  • COPD
  • Lung masses and/or nodules
  • Interstitial lung diseases
  • Chronic Cough
  • Sleep Apnea
  • Shortness of breath
  • Pneumonia and other lung infections
  • Pulmonary emboli
  • Other lung and breathing-related issues, ranging from common to severe
  • Pulmonary hypertension

We also offer pulmonary function testing services.

Why pulmonology care is important to your health

Pulmonology care is crucial for maintaining and improving respiratory health. Getting treatment for lung conditions can improve your overall quality of life. According to the American Lung Association, untreated respiratory issues can lead to severe health complications, including chronic disability and decreased life expectancy.
