This presentation will provide an overview of asthma including what asthma is, the symptoms, diagnosis and treatment, as well as conditions and environmental factors that can contribute to asthma symptoms.

Denise Kosnar is a nurse practitioner (APN) and Robin Bergeron is a certified physician assistant (PA-C) specializing in pulmonary and sleep medicine. They are both members of the Division of Pulmonary, Critical Care, and Sleep Medicine at Saint Peter’s University Hospital in New Brunswick, New Jersey. They see patients independently and are passionate about assisting patients in obtaining and maintaining asthma control.
