Our services

The pulmonologists at Novant Health Pediatric Pulmonology evaluate and treat infants, children and adolescents with common and complex breathing disorders and conditions.

Our providers work closely with a multidisciplinary care team of experienced professionals to provide optimal care to all of our patients. If an X-ray is needed to diagnose and treat a respiratory condition at the time of your child’s visit, this service is available without leaving the office.

Some of the conditions treated at our clinic include:

• Asthma
• Chronic coughing
• Pneumonia
• Genetic lung diseases such as cystic fibrosis
• Chronic coughing and trouble swallowing due to an aerodigestive disorder such as reflux
• Chronic inflammation and infection in airway passages (bronchiectasis)
• Irregular breathing in premature infants (apnea of prematurity)
• Lung infection and congestion in smaller airways (bronchiolitis)
• Lung damage caused by long-term respirator use (bronchopulmonary dysplasia)
