What is a Pediatric Pulmonologist?
What is a Pediatric Pulmonologist?
A pediatric pulmonologist is a pediatric subspecialist who treats children with lung problems, which means treating a common condition like asthma that affects nearly 10 percent of people in the world or a rare lung disease like cystic fibrosis. We treat newborns to 18-year-olds. Patients could be preemies with underdeveloped lungs, infants who need oxygen or life support at home, or young athletes with breathing problems. We help children with everything from tracheostomy tubes, to congenitally abnormal breathing tubes, to severe or recurrent pneumonias. We also conduct sleep studies for childhood sleep disorders, run a monthly pediatric tuberculosis clinic to screen for the disease and offer a vaccine clinic for RSV, a common virus that affects most children but can cause complications for higher-risk babies and children.
