Pulmonology

6812 162 Highway, Maryville, IL

Ms. Natalie Ritzheimer works as a pulmonology (lung & respiratory disease) specialist in Maryville, IL.

"Natalie, PA thoroughly discussed my options for sleep apnea since I already had a sleep study prior to Covid-19 sheltering. Changing Drs after 42 yrs was a shock for me. We reviewed my medications for Asthma and continued with the current course of treatment. No changes suggested. Since my initial meeting, I have messaged Natalie 3x's and the reply has been within an hour. I was in another state and had trouble refilling an inhaler. I messaged Natalie who was out for the day, so Ryan, NP responded and helped resolve that issue. Very confident they will continue with excellent service and I am completely satisfied with their services."

What is Pulmonology?

Pulmonology is a subspecialty that focuses on complex diseases of the lungs. In order to diagnose and treat lung disorders, a pulmonologist may also examine the chest, nose, throat, or heart. However, the main function of pulmonology is to make sure the lungs are functioning well.

Some of the diseases and disorders that might be treated by a pulmonologist include:

Pneumonia
Asthma
Tuberculosis
Emphysema
Mesothelioma and other lung cancers
Cystic Fibrosis

A pulmonologist often uses pulmonary function tests, such as spirometry, to measure how well the lungs are able to move air in and out. Pulmonologists are trained to take surgical samples and biopsies when needed, but they do not typically perform surgery. Pulmonologists may provide consultations to other doctors, acute care for sudden illnesses, or regular care for patients with long-term lung disorders.
