COPD/Asthma Service at Faith Family Health Care
At Faith Family & Aesthetics, we offer comprehensive care and treatment for COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) and asthma. Our goal is to improve the quality of life for our patients by effectively managing their conditions and providing them with the necessary tools to better manage their symptoms.
What is COPD and Asthma?
COPD is a chronic lung disease that makes it difficult to breathe. It includes emphysema, chronic bronchitis, and refractory asthma. Asthma is a condition in which a person’s airways become inflamed, making it difficult to breathe.
Both conditions can have a significant impact on a person’s daily life and can lead to serious complications if left untreated. That's why it's important to seek proper medical care for these conditions.
What's Included in our COPD/Asthma Care?
At Faith Family Health Care, we offer a comprehensive approach to managing COPD and asthma. Our services include:
- Initial evaluation and diagnosis
- Medication management

What to Expect with Treatment
Treatment for COPD and asthma will depend on the severity of the condition and individual needs. However, our team at Faith Family Health Care typically follows a three-pronged approach: medication management, breathing techniques, and lifestyle recommendations.
Patients can expect regular appointments with their healthcare provider to monitor their condition and adjust treatment as needed. It's also important for patients to follow the prescribed treatment plan consistently to achieve optimal results.
