Pulmonary Medicine

About

Pulmonary Medicine is the branch of medicine that deals with the causes, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases affecting the lungs. Pulmonary Medicine deals with many diseases and conditions, including ARDS (acute respiratory distress syndrome), asthma, COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), cystic fibrosis, interstitial lung disease, pulmonary hypertension, lung cancer, and various other conditions. Pulmonary Medicine is also sometimes called pulmonology, which is the science concerned with the anatomy, physiology, and pathology of the lungs.

Our pulmonologists are active in the Oregon Health & Science University medical school, Providence Portland Medical Center, and Providence St. Vincent residency programs as teachers, program directors and researchers. The Oregon Clinic is the regional referral group for the National Jewish Hospital in Denver for Pulmonary Fibrosis. Along with other area medical specialists, our pulmonologists participate in the Thoracic Oncology Program, which provides advanced management of chest cancers such as lung and esophageal cancer.

We are proud to be one of eight new sites to join the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation’s (PFF) Care Center Network, a national network of medical centers with expertise in treating adult patients with fibrotic lung diseases. The Oregon Clinic is now one of 68 medical centers nationwide designated with expertise in accurately diagnosing and treating people with pulmonary fibrosis.
