Dr. Collins prides himself in communication and coordination of care to provide the best personalized outcome possible. His philosophy is that respiratory patients are best cared for in a continuum from the office to the hospital/rehabilitation setting. He grew up in upstate New York and enjoys spending time outdoors with his family, playing sports and traveling.
Critical care is provided for patients who are suffering from life-threatening conditions. The doctors who work with these people are often called intensivists. They focus on a range of different issues, so they can serve people who need immediate and life-saving care. Since people who need critical care are suffering from such a wide variety of issues, intensivists must have a thorough understanding of diverse types of medical issues and the devices and medications needed to treat them.
A Pulmonologist is a healthcare professional who specializes in pulmonary care or lung care. Pulmonologists diagnose, treat, and research pulmonary diseases and problems. They may have special knowledge of other types of internal medicine and specialties, as well, and they work closely with other doctors to help make patients comfortable and improve their health.
