Montefiore Einstein Department of Medicine

Division of Pulmonary Medicine

Overview

The Division of Pulmonary Medicine at Albert Einstein College of Medicine and Montefiore Medical Center has a long-standing history of providing much needed care for the population in the Bronx. We have come a long way from being pioneers in tuberculosis diagnosis and management at the historic tuberculosis care unit at Van Etten hospital to developing the unique concept of ‘ICU without walls.’ This allows us to provide rapid bedside care to acutely ill patients and to improve clinical outcomes.

Centers and Programs

At the Montefiore Einstein Lung Center, we take pride in providing comprehensive care for inpatients and outpatients with all types of lung and respiratory conditions. Our highly experienced board-certified pulmonologists deliver exceptional care for a variety of lung diseases, including COPD, asthma, chronic cough, bronchiectasis, and pulmonary infections.
