    Manish Mohanka, MD, MPH, is the associate medical director of the Center for Advanced Lung Disease and Transplantation at the Northwell Transplant Institute.As a child, Dr. Mohanka dreamed of becoming an aerospace engineer and flying off into space. He liked studying math, physics and chemistry just as much as biology. He enjoyed applying principles of physics, chemistry and math such as motion, fluid dynamics and energy to the way the human body works. Realizing that his purpose was to use his diverse interests to help people, he decided to pursue medical school.After earning his medical degree at the Government Medical College and Hospital, Nagpur in India, he got a master's degree in public health with an epidemiology major at the University of Washington in Seattle.

His vision is to grow the program to provide lung transplant services locally to patients in the vast Northwell network and beyond.There's a growing need for lung transplants here, because patients with advanced lung diseases like COPD, interstitial lung diseases, pulmonary hypertension and cystic fibrosis need it, he says. Also, lung transplants represent an evolving field in terms of research, and this was a chance to do more investigation that could result in better treatment plans and better management of complications. The combination of excellent clinical care and meaningful research really set Northwell apart.Another aspect of transplant care at Northwell is patient support, Dr. Mohanka adds. He likes to devote time to learning about each patient at every level and address their individual needs. When a patient tells me that they appreciate how much time I take to explain everything, and that I talk in a language they can understand, that means everything to me, he says. I care about every single patient, and I want them to feel that way during every conversation. Dr. Mohanka is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Interstitial Lung Disease.

    What is the definition of Interstitial Lung Disease?

    Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a group of lung disorders in which the lung tissues become inflamed and then damaged.

    When should I see an Interstitial Lung Disease doctor near Lake Success, NY?

    There are various reasons why you may want to see a specialist, such as: 

    • Your primary care provider recommends it. 
    • Your condition requires expert knowledge and specialized care. 
    • Your symptoms persist or worsen despite treatment. 
    • You need specialized testing or procedures. 
    • You want a second opinion.  

    What should I consider when choosing an Interstitial Lung Disease doctor near Lake Success, NY?

    It’s important to see a provider with expertise in your specific condition. Each provider profile in MediFind’s doctor database includes information on which conditions they treat, years of experience, research contributions, languages spoken, insurance plans accepted, and more.  

    How does MediFind rank Interstitial Lung Disease doctors near Lake Success, NY?

    MediFind’s rankings are based on a variety of data sources, such as the number of articles a doctor has published in medical journals, participation in clinical trials and industry conferences, as well as the number of patients that provider sees for a given condition. Note that MediFind’s provider database is not based on user reviews, and providers do not pay to be included in the database. 

    What types of insurance are accepted by Interstitial Lung Disease doctors near Lake Success, NY?

    Most profiles in MediFind’s doctor database include a list of insurance plans accepted by that provider. However, it’s a good idea to contact the provider’s office to make sure they still accept your insurance, then doublecheck by contacting your insurance plan to confirm they’re in network. 

    How can I book an appointment online with an Interstitial Lung Disease doctor near Lake Success, NY?

    MediFind offers direct scheduling for certain providers using the “Request Appointment” button on that provider’s profile. If the schedule option is not available for a provider, tap the red “Show Phone Number” button on their profile to get their contact information. If you prefer to find providers who offer online scheduling, select “Schedules online” under the “Availability” category of the filter feature on the left side of the Interstitial Lung Disease doctor search results page. 

    Why is it important to get a second opinion from a different Interstitial Lung Disease doctor?

    Second opinions are an opportunity to confirm a diagnosis and its root cause, learn about alternative treatment options, or simply gain peace of mind. Many people, especially those with serious diagnoses, get second opinions so they can understand all their options and make informed decisions, so don’t hesitate to get one if you have any doubts or need more information or clarification regarding your care. Note that some insurance plans require second opinions, while others don’t cover second opinions, so be sure to confirm with your insurance provider first.   

    How can I prepare for my appointment with an Interstitial Lung Disease doctor near Lake Success, NY?

    Prepare for your appointment by gathering the following items: 

    • Copies of medical records (dating back at least one year) 
    • Your medical history, including illnesses, medical conditions, surgeries, and other doctors you see 
    • Family history of disease 
    • List of current prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal remedies or supplements including names and doses 
    • Allergies to medications, food, latex, insects, etc.  
    • List of questions and concerns 
    • Your insurance card 

    You might also contact the provider’s office to see if they offer transportation or childcare services or if you’re allowed to bring a loved one for support or to take notes during your visit. 

    What questions should I ask my Interstitial Lung Disease doctor?

    Here are some sample questions: 

    • Can you explain in simple terms what this condition is and how it’s treated? 
    • What symptoms or side effects should I watch for? 
    • What tests will be involved, and when can I expect results? 
    • Are there other specialists I need to see? 
    • What’s the best way to reach you if I have follow-up questions? 

    How can I learn about the latest clinical trials and research advances my Interstitial Lung Disease doctor may know about?

    MediFind’s Clinical Trials tool asks you a series of questions to help you narrow down your search by health condition, age, gender, location, how far you’re willing to travel, and more. Each question you answer filters down the number of trials until you find the ones that are most relevant to you. 

    MediFind’s Latest Advances tool features summaries of recent articles published in medical journals. We use cutting-edge technology to scour medical publication databases for the latest research advancements on any given condition, then we simplify this information in a way that’s useful and easy to understand. 

    Can I filter my search to show male or female Interstitial Lung Disease doctors near Lake Success, NY?

    Look for the filter feature on the left side of the Interstitial Lung Disease doctor search results page. Select “Female” or “Male” under the “Gender” category to search for female or male providers exclusively. If the “Any” option is selected, it will pull results for both male and female providers. 

    Can I filter my search to find an Interstitial Lung Disease doctor that offers video calls?

    Look for the filter feature on the left-side of the Interstitial Lung Disease doctor search results page. Select “Offers telehealth visits” under the Availability category to search for providers who offer virtual appointments (video calls).
