Asthma Clinic Mission
Nearly 9.6 million children under 18 years of age have been diagnosed with asthma. Your child's asthma can be treated so that your child can sleep well, play sports, and lead a normal childhood.
With the help of a nurse asthma educator and our providers, your child's asthma will be better managed through extended visits. Medication administration and doses will be reviewed, lung function tests performed, and an asthma action plan formulated. Ongoing evaluation of this plan occurs through follow up visits and email.
