Cardiopulmonary Rehab Pulmonary rehabilitation is for patients who have chronic respiratory diseases, are symptomatic and have decreased daily life activities due to lung disease. Pulmonary rehabilitation is designed to reduce symptoms, optimize functional status and restore the patient to the highest possible level of independent function. With triple-board-certified Bhupinder Sangha, MD, as the medical director, the goal is to help patients become more physically active and to learn more about their disease, treatment options and how to cope. Rather than focusing solely on reversing the disease process, rehabilitation attempts to reduce symptoms and reduce disability from the disease. For more information, call 830.401.7414.
