Pulmonary & Critical Care Medicine
For more than 60 years, the Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine has been a leader in advancing patient care, scientific discovery, and education. With nearly 70 full-time and part-time faculty, we bring deep expertise in conditions such as cystic fibrosis, interstitial lung disease, pulmonary hypertension, and sarcoidosis.
Our mission is to improve health outcomes through compassionate care, innovative research, and training of future physician-leaders. We fulfill this mission by caring for patients at every stage of illness, from outpatients to those who are critically ill, whose conditions inspire us to continue learning and whose experiences motivate us to advance the frontiers of medicine.
We are dedicated to not only treating our own patients but also shaping every aspect of pulmonary and critical care medicine so that we continue to have a positive influence on new generations of clinicians and scientists.
Patient Care
We deliver subpecialty care through comprehensive clinical programs in cystic fibrosis, interventional pulmonology, interstitial and occupational lung diseases, neuromuscular breathing disorders, pulmonary hypertension, sleep and circadian disorders, and lung transplantation.

We perform innovative research in respiratory biology and disease, partnering with both clinical and basic science departments across UT Southwestern to advance scientific discovery and improve patient outcomes.
Faculty
Our faculty members bring diverse expertise in clinical care, research, and education, which fosters a collaborative and intellectually vibrant environment. Many also hold leadership roles in national societies and professional organizations.
