Pulmonary Care in Apopka

When you can’t breathe deeply, it affects more than your physical well-being: it impacts your body, mind, and spirit. Chronic conditions – such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), emphysema, and lung cancer – can limit what you can do in your everyday life. The team at AdventHealth Apopka is committed to helping you get you back to your favorite activities.

Our experienced team of physicians, respiratory therapists, pulmonologists, and other specialists work together, developing a treatment plan that puts you at the center. We offer a wide range of services – from minimally invasive procedures to innovative surgical approaches and therapy services – to help you feel your best:

• Cardiac Ablation
• Cardiac Catheterization
• Carotid Angioplasty
• Carotid Artery Disease Surgery
• Descending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm/Dissection Surgery
• Left Heart Ventricular Angiography
• Laparoscopic Surgery
• Peripheral Artery Bypass
  

The first step in creating a personalized treatment plan that will help you reach your goals is for our team to understand your lung function. Your physician may order a variety of specialized tests to determine your baseline lung health. We also use these tests to pinpoint your diagnosis and rule out other diseases.

Our pulmonary function testing is offered in an inpatient or outpatient setting, which offers you access to the tests you need in a convenient, timely manner. Testing available at AdventHealth Apopka includes:

• Bedside Pulmonary-Function Screening
• Hydrogen Breath Testing
• Infant Pneumocardiograms
• Lactulose Testing
• Overnight Pulse Oximetry
  

Lung disease or chronic pulmonary conditions shouldn’t keep you from enjoying your favorite activities. Our pulmonary and respiratory rehabilitation can help you build your strength and stamina so you can safely enjoy the activities you love.

Our experienced team works closely with you and your physician to develop a plan that’s right for you. Your therapist will teach you breathing exercises and suggest how you can safely modify everyday activities. And because we focus on more than just your physical well being, our rehabilitation services also focus on your mental and emotional well being. We’re here to help you live the life you want.

The team at AdventHealth Apopka is here for you – at every stage of your journey. Our experienced surgeons, physicians, nurses, and therapists understand the complex nature of advanced pulmonary and lung diseases, and we’re here to offer treatment options that will meet your needs.

Advanced programs available to help diagnose, treat, and manage complex lung disease include thoracic surgery and pulmonary hypertension programs. Your doctor may discuss these programs or others that are right for you.
