HealthPartners Specialty Center - Lung & Sleep Health
I am very committed to partnering with and empowering patients to take charge of their health and to help them manage their illness. I was drawn to pulmonary medicine because of the many challenging illnesses that can affect the lungs. Before becoming a pulmonologist, I worked as a general internist in primary care. I understand the impact conditions like emphysema, asthma and sleep apnea can have on one's quality of life. I find that developing long-term, personalized relationships with patients is key to helping them manage their health optimally. To me, these personalized relationships are the most rewarding experience of being a doctor. My areas of interest include general pulmonary medicine, COPD, asthma, interstitial lung disease, sleep medicine and public health. Dr. Benson is highly rated in 11 conditions, according to our data.
