What is a pulmonologist?
A pulmonologist is a doctor who focuses on diagnosing and treating diseases of the lungs and respiratory system. Pulmonologists are experts in conditions like asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pneumonia, and other lung infections. They also treat more complex issues such as interstitial lung disease, lung cancer, and sleep-related breathing disorders like obstructive sleep apnea. Pulmonologists help patients breathe better and improve their lung function through medication, therapies, and lifestyle recommendations. They work with patients of all ages, although some may specialize in adults or children.
Why am I being referred to a pulmonologist?
You may be referred to a pulmonologist if your primary care doctor suspects you have a lung or breathing problem that requires specialized care. This referral could be for symptoms like shortness of breath, a persistent cough that won’t go away, wheezing, or chest pain. If your doctor thinks you have a condition like asthma, COPD, or a lung infection that isn’t improving with regular treatment, a pulmonologist can offer more in-depth testing and care. They also help manage chronic lung diseases to improve your quality of life and prevent complications.
What is the difference between a pulmonologist and other lung doctors?
Pulmonologists are specialists who focus only on lung and respiratory diseases, unlike general practitioners who treat a wide range of health issues. Some lung problems might also be treated by allergists or immunologists, especially if allergies are involved. However, pulmonologists are trained to handle more complicated or severe lung conditions. For example, they can diagnose and treat lung diseases that may require advanced tests or procedures, like bronchoscopy or lung biopsies, which other doctors may not be trained to do. This makes them the go-to experts for anything related to breathing and lung health.
What tests are performed by a pulmonologist?
Pulmonologists use several tests to check lung function and diagnose problems. Common tests include:
- Spirometry measures how much air you can breathe in and out, and how fast. This test helps diagnose conditions like asthma and COPD.
- Chest X-ray provides images of the lungs to check for infections, lung damage, or other issues.
- CT scan gives detailed images of the lungs and chest to look for tumors, blood clots, or lung scarring.
- Bronchoscopy is when a small camera is inserted into the lungs to check for blockages, infections, or abnormal tissue.
- Lung function tests measure how well the lungs move air in and out, and how efficiently they deliver oxygen to the blood.
- Blood tests check the oxygen and carbon dioxide levels in your blood to see how well your lungs are working.
What are the signs of pulmonary issues?
Signs of pulmonary issues can vary from person to person, but common symptoms include:
- Shortness of breath
- Chronic cough
- Chronic mucus production
- Wheezing
- Chest pain
- Bluish lips or fingertips
- Coughing up blood

How does MediFind rank Pulmonologists in Arizona, US?

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 Pulmonologists in Arizona, US?
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 a Pulmonologist in Arizona?
MediFind offers direct scheduling for certain providers using the “Request Appointment” button on that provider’s profile.

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 Pulmonologist search results page.
Why is it important to get a second opinion from a different Pulmonologist?
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 a Pulmonologist in Arizona, US?
Prepare for your appointment by gathering the following items:
- Copies of medical records (dating back at least one year)

- 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 Pulmonologist?

- Can you explain in simple terms what this condition is and how it’s treated?
- What symptoms or side effects should I watch for?
