Under the direction of Dr. Jay Giesler and Dr. Ken Horlander, the Pulmonary Rehabilitation Department is designed to improve the quality of life for patients with severe pulmonary problems. The program has been very successful in helping patients to perform simple tasks such as walking to the mail box, showering, cooking, and shopping that they previously were unable to do without experiencing shortness of breath.

To determine eligibility for this program, you must be referred by your primary care physician to Dr. Giesler or Dr. Horlander for an evaluation.   These highly trained physicians will monitor your progress with regular reports from the respiratory therapists.
