Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) refers to chronic lung disorders that result in reduced air flow in the lungs. The two main COPD disorders are emphysema and chronic bronchitis, the most common causes of respiratory failure.
Damage from COPD is sometimes permanent. Texas Health Harris Methodist Hospital Azle provides a comprehensive approach to the treatment of COPD and other respiratory problems. The approach includes working with a group of specialists, including pulmonologists (lung specialists), internal medicine doctors, respiratory therapists, and nurses.
At Texas Health Azle, we tailor your care to bring about the best outcome possible.
