Pulmonary Telemedicine

Pulmonary Telemedicine is provided by Dr. Italiano and Dr. Khedr of BEAM Telemedicine. 

You may need to see a Pulmonologist if you have:
  • Asthma
     
  • COPD
     
  • Emphysema
     
  • Interstitial lung disease
     
  • Pulmonary hypertension
     
  • Pulmonary nodules
     
  • Other pulmonary diseases

We offer appointments with a pulmonologist through Telemedicine twice per month (usually falling on a Wednesday or Thursday). The pulmonologist is present at the appointment via a robot. A respiratory therapist will be in the room, perform a physical if needed, and communicate with the provider. The provider can then evaluate, diagnose and treat the patient.

A referral from your provider is required. Please note – not all insurances cover telemedicine services. Upon referral, coverage will be verified.
