Many people who have allergy and sinus issues also have asthma. We are now offering asthma evaluation and management, including pulmonary function testing, individualized asthma treament plans, regular followups, and work-in appointments for those times when asthma flares. Our Nurse Practitioner has over 15 years of pulmonary experience, with nine of those focused on asthma and allergy care. Our goals in treating your asthma are to:

• minimize the impact it has on your daily activities, exercise, and sleep needs
• minimize any permanent damage that can occur
• teach you to manage your asthma and its symptoms using personalized action plans
• work in partnership with you to maximize your respiratory health
