About this episode
Host: Nathan Falk, MD, MBA, FAAFP
Guest: Ashwin Basavaraj, MD

Early recognition and diagnosis of non-tuberculosis mycobacteria (NTM) and bronchiectasis are key for optimal patient management. However, these conditions are often misdiagnosed as COPD or asthma, leading to significant challenges and delays in treatment. Join Drs. Nate Falk and Ashwin Basavaraj as they share perspectives on accurately diagnosing NTM and bronchiectasis with early symptom recognition, a thorough patient history, and testing. Dr. Falk is a board-certified family medicine physician, a Professor and Founding Residency Director for Family Medicine at Florida State University in partnership with BayCare Health System, and the Assistant Dean for Graduate Medical Education at Florida State University. Dr. Basavaraj is an Associate Professor of Medicine at New York University Grossman School of Medicine, the Director of the Bronchiectasis and NTM Education Program at NYU Langone Health, and the Section Chief of Pulmonary, Critical Care, and Sleep Medicine at Bellevue Hospital Center.

This program is produced in partnership with the American College of CHEST Physicians and is sponsored by Insmed Incorporated.
