Stories like Jamie’s remind us why we do what we do. Care should never feel rushed. Questions should always be welcome. Every patient deserves to feel heard, supported, and understood.

We’re more than a clinic. We’re part of the Owasso and Broken Arrow community. Our patients are the same people we see at the grocery store, the Friday night games, the school events that fill the calendar.
Serving our cities means we CARE for the people we care for. Every person who walks through our doors is a neighbor first. And every neighbor deserves to be met with compassion, respect, and the kind of care we’d want for our own families.
Our approach to healthcare is rooted in community. It's personal. It's human. It's hopeful. That’s what we believe in here at Oklahoma Pulmonary Care. Your care begins with connection.

It’s been weeks since that cold, but the wheezing hasn’t gone away. You thought it would fade on its own. But every breath is a small reminder that something isn’t quite back to normal.
What’s happening here? Oftentimes, you're looking at post-viral inflammation. This is irritation in the airways that lingers long after the other symptoms disappear. It’s common but it’s not something to ignore. Those inflamed airways can stay sensitive, leaving you more prone to coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath. It's not something to fear. But it IS something to get help with.

Every room in our clinic tells a story of patients who came in searching for answers and left with a plan that finally made sense.

Pulmonary medicine is not just about lungs. It is about people. It is about understanding the rhythm of your breath, the quality of your rest, and how your environment shapes the way you feel each day.

At OK Pulmonary Care, we treat each patient like family with time, respect, and attention to details others might miss. Healing starts the moment you feel truly cared for.

This is one of the biggest misunderstandings I see in pulmonary care: The idea that you should “tough it out” until you can’t anymore. But healing shouldn't have to begin at the breaking point. It could be a simple cough, feeling a little fatigued, or noticing your breathing is a little heavier than normal... those things matter. They’re your body’s way of asking for attention. And sometimes, one appointment is all it takes to start giving your body what it needs.

For a long time, doctors believed the lower lungs were sterile, empty spaces that only moved air. But new research is proving otherwise...

Studies published in PubMed and BioMed Central show that our lungs actually host their own microbiome, a delicate community of bacteria, fungi, and viruses that quietly affect how our airways function.

When this microscopic balance is disrupted, we call it "dysbiosis."
And that imbalance can lead to inflammation, flare-ups of chronic lung conditions, and that feeling that breathing takes more effort than it should.

The lungs, it turns out, are more alive and dynamic than we ever imagined. And like the gut or the skin, they depend on balance, not sterility, to stay healthy.

At Oklahoma Pulmonary Care, we’re learning from this evolving research every day, using it to better understand how inflammation, infection, and environment shape the way we breathe. Because caring for your lungs isn’t just about oxygen. It’s about harmony on the smallest level.

It’s easy to overlook, but water is one of the simplest and most powerful ways to support your lungs.
Here’s why: the airways in your lungs are lined with a thin layer of mucus. It may not sound pleasant, but that layer has an important job: That is, trapping dust, allergens, and germs before they reach deeper into the lungs. Tiny hair-like structures called cilia then move that mucus upward, where it can be cleared from the body.
When you’re well hydrated, that mucus stays thin and moves easily. Your lungs clear irritants more effectively, and breathing feels smoother.
But when you’re dehydrated, the mucus thickens. It becomes harder to move, which means irritants stay trapped longer. For someone with asthma, COPD, or chronic bronchitis, that extra thickness can worsen coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath.
The fix is surprisingly simple: consistent hydration. Not just big gulps of water once or twice a day, but small sips spread throughout your routine.
It’s a small habit. But over time, it’s one that adds up to healthier breathing.

Our patients aren’t just names on a chart. They’re our neighbors, our friends, the people we see at the grocery store or cheer for at the Friday night game.

That’s why we’re proud to serve Owasso and Broken Arrow with pulmonary care that puts YOU first.

When it comes to lung health, one of the most important actions you can take doesn’t require a prescription. It starts with how you breathe.
Most of us spend our days taking quick, shallow breaths high in the chest. Over time, that pattern limits how much oxygen we pull in and how effectively our lungs expand. For people already managing lung conditions like asthma or COPD, shallow breathing makes the body work even harder.
But practicing diaphragmatic breathing can make a massive difference.
Here’s why: the diaphragm is the main muscle of breathing, sitting beneath the lungs like a dome. When you strengthen and train it, each breath becomes more efficient. Oxygen exchange improves. The body has to work less for the same result. Studies have shown diaphragmatic breathing can reduce shortness of breath, improve exercise tolerance, and even lower stress hormones that put extra strain on the heart.
The practice itself is simple:
Place one hand on your chest and one on your stomach.
Breathe in slowly through your nose, focusing on your belly rising more than your chest.
Exhale gently through pursed lips, letting the stomach fall.
It seems small, but consistency matters. Over weeks and months, these exercises condition the lungs and diaphragm the way daily walks condition your muscles.

Treating you is my honor.

One of the most common things I hear from new patients is, “I just want answers.” I hear you.
You've seen other providers. You've had tests. You've Googled late into the night. And still, you're here... at Oklahoma Pulmonary Care... carrying so many questions.
I understand how exhausting that feels. Living with symptoms you can’t explain leaves you feeling stuck, exhausted, like none of it will ever make sense.
My role as a pulmonologist is to connect the dots. To listen carefully, look at the whole picture, and uncover the patterns that might have been missed. Sometimes the answer is straightforward. Other times, it’s more complex. But there is always a reason behind what you’re feeling. And, together, we can find that reason.

I will scream this until I'm blue in the face: No one is defined by a habit or a history. Every person deserves to be heard, cared for, and given a plan that fits where they are right now.
Now, of course, smoking does affect the lungs. There’s no denying that. But so does compassion. So does understanding. So does offering tools and options that help you move toward health, step by step, without shame or judgement.
At OK Pulmonary, we meet you exactly where you are. Whether you’re ready to quit smoking, not sure if you can, or simply want to understand the state of your lungs today, you still deserve answers, relief, and respect. Always.
