The Division of Pulmonary and Sleep Medicine has been built upon the foundation of a multidisciplinary team model of care for children who have a wide variety of acute and chronic respiratory and sleep disorders. Our primary mission is to provide comprehensive medical, nutritional, and psychosocial care to our patients and their families, along with related educational services to them and their primary care providers.

Seven board certified pulmonary physicians comprise our academic faculty, three of whom are board certified in sleep medicine. Our care team includes eight clinic nurses, six clinical nurse practitioners, five pediatric respiratory therapists/pulmonary function technologists, three medical social workers, two dieticians, two clinical psychologists, one PhD behavioral sleep psychologist, a clinical pharmacologist, 11 registered polysomnography technologists and two clinical research coordinators.

Education of other health professionals provides the opportunity to extend our "medical home" concept into their community practices. In this way, we support good communication and continuity of care for our shared patients.
