Experts in Pulmonary Disease
Your pulmonary system includes your airways, lungs, the blood vessels and arteries in your lungs, and the muscles that help your lungs function. Its primary purpose is to move oxygen through your body.
A pulmonary doctor, called a pulmonologist, works with you to manage conditions that affect your ability to breathe, including asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and pulmonary hypertension.
The board-certified pulmonologists at Beaufort Memorial understand the intricate nature of the lungs and how they affect overall health. They can also work with you to manage chronic conditions, such as heart disease, that can impact your lung health.
