We have developed a comprehensive Asthma Education Program designed to achieve several goals:

• Promote compliance with prescribed medications, inhalers and aerosols

• Improve tolerance to exercise (Exercise-Induced Asthma and Athletes with Asthma Programs)

• Aid in symptom-free nights

• Reduce visits to emergency rooms and decrease hospital admissions

• Reduce community health care expenses

Qualified, experienced respiratory therapists will conduct the program. An initial comprehensive visit (Phase I) will be provided to all patients. Subsequent follow-up visits (Phase II and III) will depend on the severity of the disease and patient progress.

This program is offered by our office as a service to the community, no consultation to a pulmonologist is necessary. At the conclusion of the program, a letter will be forwarded to the referring physician for each patient. Ongoing recommendations for treatment plans will be communicated when applicable. Please contact us if you have a patient(s) who could benefit from this program.
