Pulmonary Associates was founded by Dr. Paul Stewart in 1978. Dr. Stewart expanded the group by adding physicians who are highly skilled in pulmonary medicine and allergy services, and dedicated to compassionate care of patients. Today, Pulmonary Associates includes 14 physicians and four advance practice nurse practitioners. Pulmonary Associates specializes in the care of patients in a private practice setting, or who are hospitalized in acute care or long-term care facilities in the Las Vegas Valley. As a medical subspecialty, Pulmonary Associates provides services in the hospital on a consulting basis, managing patients in the Intensive Care Unit and those who need ventilator support. Patients are also seen in the office for a wide range of pulmonary conditions, sleep disorders, allergies and asthma. Pulmonary Associates offers services at six office locations, and at all hospitals in the Las Vegas Valley from Centennial Hills in the north to Sienna Medical Center in Henderson.
