Alexandra Kass

Overview

I became interested in pediatric pulmonary medicine early in my training when I realized the significant impact a pulmonologist can have on the quality of patients’ lives. I enjoy meeting patients, learning about their respiratory problems, and working with families to create a personalized and evidence-based treatment plan.I treat patients with a wide variety of breathing issues, including chronic cough, asthma, lung disease of prematurity, difficulty with exercise, swallowing issues, and frequent lung infections. I enjoy establishing long term relationships with children and their families and being part of a multidisciplinary team. I am also passionate about medical education, where I help train medical trainees to become leaders in the field.

Her top areas of expertise are Cystic Fibrosis, Cerebral Hypoxia, Asthma, and Chronic Cough.

Her clinical research consists of co-authoring 7 peer reviewed articles. MediFind looks at clinical research from the past 15 years.
