Top Conditions We Treat

At The Medical Group of New Jersey, our pulmonology specialists diagnose and manage a wide range of breathing and lung conditions. Explore some of the most common disorders below. Each links to a detailed Clinical Patient Journey page describing symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention.

Asthma
Asthma causes airway inflammation and narrowing, leading to wheezing, coughing, and shortness of breath. Our pulmonologists use spirometry testing, inhaler therapy, and action plans to control symptoms and prevent flare-ups.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
A progressive lung disease caused by chronic bronchitis or emphysema, COPD results in persistent cough, sputum production, and breathlessness. We provide spirometry diagnosis, inhalers, oxygen therapy, and rehabilitation for long-term management.

Pneumonia
Pneumonia is a lung infection that causes fever, cough, and chest pain. Our pulmonologists diagnose with chest X-rays and cultures and provide targeted antibiotic or antiviral treatment with follow-up for full recovery.

Pulmonary Embolism
A pulmonary embolism occurs when a blood clot travels to the lungs, causing sudden shortness of breath or chest pain. We offer rapid CT angiography diagnosis and anticoagulation or thrombolytic therapy to restore circulation.

Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD)
ILD includes chronic conditions that cause lung scarring and stiffness, such as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and sarcoidosis. Our team provides HRCT diagnosis, antifibrotic medications, and oxygen therapy for advanced cases.

Pulmonary Hypertension
High pressure in the pulmonary arteries can cause shortness of breath, dizziness, or fatigue. We perform echocardiograms and right heart catheterization to guide treatment with vasodilators, oxygen, and advanced therapies.

Tuberculosis (TB)
Tuberculosis is a chronic bacterial infection causing cough, fever, and weight loss. Our pulmonologists diagnose TB through skin tests, IGRA, and imaging, and manage care with multi-drug therapy and close monitoring.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)
OSA causes snoring, daytime fatigue, and poor sleep quality due to airway collapse during sleep. We offer home and in-lab sleep studies, followed by treatment with CPAP, oral appliances, or surgery when needed.

Lung Cancer
Lung cancer may present with chronic cough, blood in sputum, or unexplained weight loss. Our specialists provide low-dose CT screening, biopsy, and coordinated care with oncology for surgery, chemotherapy, or immunotherapy.

Pleural Effusion & Pneumothorax
Pleural disease occurs when fluid or air collects around the lungs, causing shortness of breath or chest pain. We use ultrasound-guided thoracentesis or chest tube placement for diagnosis and treatment.

Our Multidisciplinary Approach

Because respiratory health is often intertwined with other organ systems, our pulmonologists work closely with specialists in cardiology (for pulmonary hypertension and heart-lung interactions), oncology (for lung cancer), infectious disease (for TB and complicated pneumonias), sleep medicine (for OSA), and thoracic surgery (for biopsies and pleural procedures). This integrated care model ensures we treat the whole patient, not just the lungs.
