In Pulmonary Medicine at KMC, we believe every breath should be strong and free. “We know it can be scary when breathing is hard,” says the Chief of Pulmonary Medicine. “Our job is to give patients the tools and treatments they need to breathe easy and get back to the moments they love.” Whether you are coping with asthma, recovering from pneumonia, or learning to manage COPD, our team listens to your story, answers your questions patiently, and creates a treatment plan just for you. We use advanced diagnostics – like precise lung function tests and high-resolution imaging – to understand your needs quickly. From the first consultation to the last check-up, our nurses and respiratory therapists support you as you regain strength.

  • Why Choose KMC for Lung Health? We have Lebanon’s leading pulmonologists (trained at AUB and American-Board certified), cutting-edge equipment, and a real 24/7 link to our Emergency and ICU teams in case your breathing needs urgent help.

  • Personalized Treatments: We offer everything from inhaler therapies and nebulized treatments to minimally invasive bronchoscopic procedures. Sleep medicine experts help diagnose and treat sleep apnea or nocturnal breathing problems, ensuring even your nights are restful.

  • Gentle Support: Worried about procedures like bronchoscopy? Our specialists guide you through every step, ensuring you are comfortable and informed.

“Before coming to KMC, I thought I’d never run again,” recalls Walid N. from Jounieh. “My Dr. and his team worked with me through pulmonary rehab. Now I’m back to gardening and even walking uphill without gasping for air. They gave me my life back.”

Patients often ask, “Can I get lung tests and consultations in one visit?” Absolutely. At KMC, we coordinate visits to our Pulmonary Clinic, Imaging Lab, and even our Sleep Center so you get answers fast. “What about air quality or allergies here?” we hear frequently. Our doctors are very familiar with the Mediterranean climate – they can advise on seasonal allergies and how to avoid triggers common in our region.

When you leave KMC’s Pulmonary Department, we want you breathing more freely and feeling more hopeful. Like many of our patients say: “It feels like my lungs have a new start”.
