Often, our patients have not yet been diagnosed with a particular disorder, and present to us with symptoms such as shortness of breath, cough, or chest pain. We welcome such patients, and formulate a thoughtful diagnostic plan to determine the cause of their symptoms, after which we are able to treat them with the goal of restoring them back to good health.
