Pulmonology Center of Excellence

Supporting patients living with a rare pulmonology condition

Orsini’s Pulmonology Center of Excellence launched in 2014 with our first program for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Today we support multiple pulmonology programs across several rare conditions. Our dedicated Therapy Care Teams work with the physician’s office and insurance on a patient’s behalf so that our patients and their family have more time to focus on their treatment and quality of life. We are here to listen, provide counseling on treatment, including side-effect management, and assist with sourcing third-party financial assistance.

About Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF)

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a progressive lung disease characterized by the gradual thickening and scarring of lung tissue. This scarring hinders the lungs’ ability to efficiently transfer oxygen into the bloodstream, resulting in debilitating symptoms. Individuals with IPF often experience shortness of breath, a persistent dry cough, fatigue, unexplained weight loss, and muscle and joint aches. The term ‘idiopathic’ indicates an unknown cause, adding to the complexity of the condition.

About Systemic Sclerosis Interstitial Lung Disease (SSc-ILD)

Systemic sclerosis interstitial lung disease is a complex and progressive condition that arises as a complication of systemic sclerosis, an autoimmune disorder. This disease manifests as fibrosis and inflammation in the lungs, impairing their normal function. Common symptoms include breathlessness, persistent cough, and diminished lung capacity. Understanding this interplay between the body’s autoimmune response and lung damage helps in navigating the journey of living with SSc-ILD.
