The Stanford Bronchiectasis and NTM clinic cares for patients with bronchiectasis who suffer from chronic lung infections, chronic cough and sputum production, shortness of breath, fatigue and other bodily symptoms.  We offer evaluations for the etiology of airway disease, collaborative care with other specialists, comprehensive airway clearance techniques and education, and antibiotic management. For patients with NTM lung disease, we offer testing for disease confirmation, comprehensive antibiotic management, surgical resection and a variety of clinical trials. Our program includes comprehensive care, ground-breaking scientific research, education and support for people with bronchiectasis and NTM lung disease.
