In the US they're pulmonologists. In Great Brtain and much of Europe, they're often some variation of respiralogist. In either case, you do need to see someone who specializes in lungs and breathing.

Yes a Pulmonologist is a must--or a Lung doctor of some sort--Respirologist? I'm not sure about that one but I recommend that you have your doctor refer you to a Pulmonologist as soon as you can get to one @A MyCOPDTeam Member
