Our services
At Novant Health Pulmonary Medicine South – Rock Hill, we provide care for adults experiencing a wide range of lung and respiratory conditions. If breathing issues are interfering with your daily routine or disrupting your sleep, our team is here to support you.
Our specialists focus on thoroughly evaluating your lung health and creating personalized care plans to manage symptoms and maintain lung function — so you can stay active, comfortable, and enjoy everyday activities with greater ease.
Conditions we regularly treat include:
- Asthma (a respiratory condition that makes breathing difficult)
- Bronchitis (inflammation of the bronchial tubes that often causes coughing)
- Emphysema (a condition where damaged air sacs in the lungs cause breathlessness)
- Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD; a condition in which constricted airways regularly cause difficulty or discomfort in breathing)
- Pulmonary fibrosis (a lung disease caused by damaged or scarred lung tissue)
- Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS; a condition in which fluid leaks into the lungs, making breathing difficult)
- Cystic fibrosis (a hereditary disease in which the body produces thick mucous that can clog the lungs)
- Sleep apnea (interruptions in breathing during sleep)
Services we offer include:
