Accurate diagnosis is the foundation of good treatment. Our clinic is equipped with the tests most commonly needed to understand asthma, COPD, chronic cough and allergies, so that many questions can be answered in a single visit.

Your doctor will tell you which tests you need and how to prepare for them. In general, please bring your previous reports and a list of the medicines and inhalers you use.

Pulmonary Function Testing (PFT)

Also called spirometry, this simple breathing test measures how much air you can breathe out and how fast. It helps diagnose and monitor asthma, COPD and other lung conditions, and shows how well treatment is working.

  • Diagnosing asthma and COPD
  • Checking how severe a lung condition is
  • Tracking response to treatment

Impulse Oscillometry (IOS)

IOS measures the resistance in your airways while you simply breathe normally, without any forceful effort. It is especially useful for children and for people who find it difficult to perform spirometry.

  • Children and elderly patients
  • Detecting small-airway problems
  • People who cannot do forceful breathing tests

FeNO Testing

Fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) is a quick, painless test that measures a marker of airway inflammation in your breath. It supports the diagnosis of asthma and helps in choosing and adjusting treatment.

  • Supporting an asthma diagnosis
  • Guiding inhaler treatment
  • Understanding the cause of a long-standing cough

Allergy Testing

Allergy tests help identify the substances that trigger your sneezing, cough or wheeze, such as dust mites, pollen or pet dander. Knowing your triggers lets us build a more targeted treatment and avoidance plan.

  • Allergic rhinitis and allergic asthma
  • Frequent sneezing, itchy eyes and runny nose
  • Planning trigger avoidance
