Severe Asthma Clinic
The pediatric experts on our team come from several departments, including:
- Pulmonology
- Allergy & Immunology
- Respiratory Therapy
- Nursing
In addition to conducting tests to confirm the asthma diagnosis, we identify co-existing problems that may be making the asthma worse and determine asthma triggers. We also work closely with families to create practical strategies to help patients avoid these triggers.
Preventing asthma attacks
Asthma attacks can be scary. We want to ease the anxiety that often comes with an asthma diagnosis. We help children and their families recognize the early warning signs of an attack, and develop action plans to mitigate the severity.
