Find Qualified Asthma Specialist (Asthma Doctor) To Get Most Up-To-Date Medications

Asthma affects 1 in 10 children in the United States. This number is even higher in urban areas like New Jersey. Specialists in Allergy and Immunology are also Asthma Doctors. We are uniquely qualified to treat asthma because of our ability to diagnose and treat allergies, the main trigger of asthma exacerbations. Symptoms of asthma are often overlooked and under-treated. Asthma is a serious condition, and if not treated properly can lead to life-threatening attacks and long term damage to the lungs. Research has shown that after a single visit with an allergist, asthma patients can expect, on average, a 10% improvement in lung function.
