  • Healthy diets to help you manage your weight and improve energy

We evaluate patients with breathing trouble from various causes and do cardiopulmonary exercise testing to find the cause of breathing difficulty in complex cases.

The Lung Nodule Program detects lung nodules, performs diagnostic testing including biopsies using bronchoscopy and endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) guided bronchoscopy. Based on these studies, we treat lung nodules of cancer, valley fever, lung infection and other non-cancer causes.  The lung nodule program also does long term follow up of all lung cancers treated previously. Our specialists also drain fluid collection in chest cavity due to various causes.
