A unit in the heart of a multidisciplinary hospital
The pulmonary medicine team is composed of three pulmonologists, former hospital interns, former chief residents, and an allergist.
We provide pulmonary consultations every day from Monday to Friday and allergy consultations once a week on Thursday afternoons. Pulmonologists are on call for emergencies 24/7 in conjunction with the emergency room and intensive care services of the American Hospital of Paris.
Multidisciplinary consultative meetings are held every two weeks. They are attended by pulmonologists, thoracic surgeons, radiologists, oncologists, radiation therapists and a cytopathologist to discuss all patients being treated for cancer and to collectively make surgical recommendations.
