Pediatric Asthma Care
If your child has asthma, you want to do everything you can to ease their symptoms. Our pediatric asthma specialists offer treatment options that manage symptoms and help children stay active and healthy.
Why Choose Sutter?
About 1 in 10 children have asthma, making it the most common severe chronic disease of childhood. While there’s no cure for asthma, the good news is that we can control it with the right treatment. Our goal is to help your child thrive while enjoying outdoor and high-energy activities.
Asthma symptoms like difficulty breathing, chest tightness, phlegm and coughing are scary for kids and parents — and can mimic other disorders. Your child's doctor may run tests to rule them out. We use a wide range of diagnostic tools to accurately identify what triggers your child’s asthma attacks or flare-ups. Then we create a customized treatment plan to reduce your child’s symptoms.
Our asthma specialists will create an Asthma Action Plan, which helps kids keep their asthma under control by reminding them what triggers to avoid, which medicines to take and when to take them.
