Pediatric Asthma Care

Weill Cornell Medicine Asthma Program for Innovation, Research, and Education (ASPIRE) is a collaborative effort between NewYork-Presbyterian Komansky Children’s Hospital and the Asthma Center at NewYork-Presbyterian Queens. Our program provides high-quality, comprehensive care to children who are at risk of asthma-related complications. We understand that asthma can be a challenge, but we're here to help you and your child every step of the way.

Our team of asthma experts, educators, specialists, and health workers work together to make sure your child receives the best care possible. We'll connect you to individualized asthma education, community-based resources, and support materials that will help you manage your child's asthma successfully.

Here's what you can expect from our program:

·       One-on-one sessions with certified asthma educators who will help develop and support your child's individualized asthma action plan.

·       Lung function testing to see how well your child's lungs are working.

·       Allergy testing to learn more about what triggers your child's asthma and how to avoid those allergens.

·       Regular assessments with an asthma specialist to track how well your child's medication is working and to make recommendations that are specific to your child's needs.

·       Home and environmental assessments, including the provision of bed and pillow covers to reduce exposure to allergens.

We believe that providing access to comprehensive care for pediatric asthma patients is essential to reducing the risk of complications and improving quality of life. Our goal is to work with you and your child to ensure they receive the best care possible.
