Pulmonologists are medical doctors who specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of conditions related to the respiratory system, including the lungs and airways. They manage various respiratory disorders such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pneumonia, tuberculosis, lung cancer, and sleep disorders like sleep apnea.
CARE Hospitals features India's top pulmonologists, recognized for their exceptional expertise and leading-edge care in pulmonary medicine.
You should consider visiting a pulmonologist if you experience symptoms such as persistent cough, shortness of breath, wheezing, chest pain, coughing up blood, recurrent respiratory infections, or if you have a family history of lung disease. Usually, if you have been diagnosed with a respiratory condition and require specialized care, consulting a pulmonologist is advisable.
While pulmonologists primarily focus on conditions of the lungs and respiratory system, they may also manage certain upper respiratory conditions such as sinusitis, especially if it's related to underlying respiratory issues. However, for comprehensive treatment of sinus conditions, consulting an otolaryngologist (ear, nose, and throat specialist) may be recommended.
The term "chest doctor" is a more general term that may refer to any medical specialist who treats conditions related to the chest area. While, pulmonologists specifically focus on diagnosing and treating diseases of the respiratory system, including the lungs and airways. While some chest doctors may include pulmonologists, they may also refer to cardiologists or other specialists depending on the context.
CARE Hospitals is known for its outstanding pulmonology services, providing advanced diagnostics and treatments for various respiratory conditions, equipped with experienced pulmonologists and cutting-edge facilities.
To schedule an appointment with the best pulmonologist in India at CARE Hospitals, you can contact the hospital directly through the website or by calling the appointment helpline.
Lung/chest specialists, also known as pulmonologists, treat various conditions including asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pneumonia, lung cancer, sleep apnea, and interstitial lung diseases.
When choosing a chest specialist, consider their qualifications, experience, patient reviews, and whether they are affiliated with a reputable hospital. It's also important to check if they offer the specific services you need.
During your first consultation, you can expect a detailed discussion about your medical history, symptoms, and any previous treatments. The specialist may perform a physical examination and suggest further tests if necessary.
To prepare, bring your medical history, a list of medications you’re taking, and any previous test results. It’s also helpful to write down your symptoms and any questions you may have.
A lung specialist may recommend tests such as chest X-rays, CT scans, pulmonary function tests, bronchoscopy, or blood tests to assess your lung health.
Yes, chest specialists at CARE Hospitals offer video consultations for patients who prefer remote care or have difficulty visiting in person.
The frequency of visits depends on your specific condition and its severity. Generally, patients with chronic conditions should see their pulmonologist at least every 3 to 6 months.
To manage your follow-up care plan, maintain regular communication with your pulmonologist, adhere to prescribed treatments, keep track of your symptoms, and attend all scheduled follow-up appointments.
