Pulmonology Services
Department of Pulmonology
Every breath you take fuels your body, mind, and energy. But when that breath becomes labored — when coughing, wheezing, or shortness of breath takes over — your lungs are trying to tell you something. Pulmonology is the branch of medicine that listens to those signals and restores the rhythm of your breathing.
At our Department of Pulmonology, we combine advanced diagnostics, expert medical care, and personalized treatment strategies to manage all types of respiratory and sleep-related disorders — from seasonal allergies to complex lung diseases.
What Is Pulmonology?
Pulmonology is the medical specialty focused on the lungs and respiratory system, including the airways, chest wall, and diaphragm.
Our pulmonologists (lung specialists) diagnose, treat, and prevent diseases that affect breathing — ensuring optimal oxygen flow throughout the body.
This specialty bridges critical care, internal medicine, and rehabilitation, handling everything from infections to chronic, life-impacting conditions such as COPD, asthma, and interstitial lung disease.
Conditions We Treat
Our pulmonology team manages a wide spectrum of respiratory disorders, including:
- Asthma and Allergic Bronchitis – Personalized inhaler therapy and trigger management.
- Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) – Long-term care plans, oxygen therapy, and pulmonary rehab.
- Lung Infections – Diagnosis and treatment for pneumonia, tuberculosis (TB), and post-COVID complications.
- Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) – Advanced testing and multidisciplinary management for scarring and fibrosis.
- Sleep Apnea and Snoring Disorders – Sleep studies and non-invasive airway support devices (CPAP/BiPAP).
- Occupational Lung Diseases – Evaluation and prevention for pollution, dust, and chemical exposure.
- Lung Cancer Detection – Low-dose CT screening and coordination with oncology teams for early treatment.
- Pleural Effusion and Pneumothorax – Image-guided drainage and medical stabilization.
Each case is handled with a personalized approach, balancing medication, lifestyle changes, and technology-assisted interventions.
Advanced Diagnostic Facilities
Accurate diagnosis is at the heart of effective pulmonology.
Our department features cutting-edge tools for precise lung assessment:
- Spirometry and Pulmonary Function Tests (PFTs): Measure lung capacity, airflow, and breathing efficiency.
- Chest X-ray and HRCT Scans: High-resolution imaging for infections, fibrosis, or tumors.
- Bronchoscopy: Visual examination of airways for blockages, bleeding, or infection.
- Sleep Lab Studies: Overnight monitoring for apnea and sleep-related breathing disorders.
- Allergy Testing and Arterial Blood Gas Analysis: Assess immune triggers and oxygen levels.
These technologies empower our pulmonologists to design targeted treatment plans based on real-time lung performance.
Our Approach: Integrated and Preventive
Respiratory health isn’t just about medications — it’s about habits, environment, and awareness.
We take a holistic approach that goes beyond symptom control:
- Early screening for smokers and people with occupational exposure.
- Lung rehabilitation and breathing exercises.
- Nutritional guidance to support respiratory recovery.
- Counseling for anxiety related to chronic breathlessness.
Our focus is not only on treating lung disease but also on preventing its recurrence through lifestyle transformation.
Pulmonology and Post-COVID Care
Post-COVID recovery has introduced new respiratory challenges — lingering cough, low oxygen, fatigue, and lung scarring.
Our post-COVID clinic specializes in lung function restoration, including oxygen therapy, spirometry-based rehabilitation, and gradual exercise conditioning.
We help patients regain stamina, rebuild lung capacity, and return to normal living safely and confidently.

Frequently Asked Questions
If you experience persistent cough, wheezing, chest tightness, breathlessness, or fatigue during normal activity, you should see a pulmonologist. These symptoms can indicate asthma, COPD, lung infection, or early lung disease. Early diagnosis helps prevent long-term lung damage.
Your visit includes a detailed medical history, chest examination, and lung function tests such as spirometry or imaging. The doctor identifies possible causes, prescribes medications or inhalers, and recommends lifestyle changes. Most conditions improve significantly with early and consistent treatment.
Yes. Avoiding smoking, reducing air-pollution exposure, maintaining good posture, regular exercise, and annual health screenings can protect your lungs. Timely vaccination for influenza and pneumonia also helps reduce the risk of serious infections and chronic respiratory illness.
