Mona L. Bashar, MD

As a dedicated pulmonologist at NYU Langone, I am committed to providing exceptional care to my patients. My approach is rooted in empathy and compassion, ensuring that each patient feels heard and understood. I believe in the importance of patient education and take the time to explain the complexities of each condition, empowering my patients to make informed decisions about their health.

I specialize in treating a wide range of pulmonary conditions, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, interstitial lung disease, and pulmonary hypertension. My practice prioritizes personalized care, meticulously evaluating each patient's unique medical history, symptoms, and lifestyle to develop tailored treatment plans. Whether managing chronic conditions or addressing acute respiratory issues, my goal is to improve my patients' quality of life through comprehensive and compassionate care.

Throughout my career, I have emphasized the importance of collaboration with other specialties. Managing complex conditions and co-morbidities requires a comprehensive, integrated approach. I work closely with cardiologists, endocrinologists, immunologists, and primary care physicians to ensure that all aspects of my patients' health are addressed. This collaborative effort allows us to develop cohesive treatment plans that consider the interplay between various health issues, providing a more holistic approach to patient care.

My journey into medicine began with a deep-seated interest in respiratory health and a desire to make a meaningful impact on patients' lives. I completed my medical degree and specialized training in pulmonary medicine, which equipped me with the expertise to handle a variety of respiratory conditions. My commitment to excellence and patient-centered care has earned me a reputation as a trusted and respected pulmonologist in my community.
