Pulmonary care

Teams of pulmonologists at our hospitals offer treatment for a wide range of respiratory and pulmonary diseases and conditions, including:

• Asthma
• Bronchitis
• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
• Emphysema
• Lung nodules
• Pulmonary hypertension

Whether you need a screening or have been diagnosed and need treatment, we offer complete services for lung cancer patients.

We offer low-dose computed tomography (CT) scans to provide detailed images with less exposure to radiation. These scans give your physician a more detailed view to determine the source and location of lung disease.

Additionally, at Medical City Dallas and Medical City Lewisville, we offer Chest Lung Evaluation and Resource (CLEAR) clinics. These clinics offer smoking cessation services as well as evaluation, diagnosis and recommendations for care.

Robotic surgery, a technology which allows surgeons to perform minimally invasive surgery through small incisions, has many potential benefits. If you are considering minimally invasive or laparoscopic surgery, you may be a candidate for a robot-assisted procedure. Ask your doctor if robotic surgery might be right for you. Benefits of robot-assisted surgery vary, but may include smaller incisions, reduced pain and discomfort, less scarring, a shorter hospital stay and a faster recovery.
