At my hospital (Yale NewHaven) the Interventional Pulmonologists do the procedures, like bronchoscopies. I'm sure my pulmo COULD do one, but that's not how they divide the work here, so she refers me to them for the bronchoscopy.

Mayo believe Mayo also had interventional pulmonologist do my bronchoscopy.

Here’s AI info: An interventional pulmonologist (IP) is a medical specialist who uses minimally invasive techniques to diagnose and treat lung and airway diseases. They perform advanced diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, including robotic bronchoscopy, thoracentesis, and pleuroscopy. IPs work with a multidisciplinary team to develop individualized treatment plans for patients. IPs treat conditions such as lung cancer, pleural diseases, and complex airway and lung disorder
