News Briefs: Bronchiectasis & NTM Care + Hernia Repair

Bronchiectasis & NTM Care

We recently joined the Bronchiectasis and NTM Care Center Network, a nation-wide network dedicated to facilitating access to specialized care for these conditions.

We see patients with all forms of the disease, including those with and without cystic fibrosis. We also treat primary ciliary dyskinesia, a genetic disorder that occurs with bronchiectasis.
