We have an active consultation service and work closely with clinicians at Yale New Haven Hospital, including those specializing in pulmonary and critical care medicine, general medicine and its subspecialties, thoracic and general oncology, cardiac and thoracic surgery, pulmonary pathology, radiation oncology, and cardiology.
