Meet your team

When your little one has trouble breathing, it can be a scary time for the whole family. At Cook Children’s, our kind and caring doctors who specialize in children’s lung health, called pediatric pulmonologists, are here to help.

They can test your child, offer support and give them the best treatments to make breathing easier. Whether it’s a short-term problem or something that lasts a long time, Cook Children’s offers excellent care for kids with breathing problems, both in the hospital and at the doctor’s office.

Our team of doctors is one of the best in the country. They know a lot about many different breathing problems and will do their best to help your child feel better.
