About Us

Dedicated to Pediatric Lung & Allergy Care in Asheville and Western North Carolina

Taking an individualized, root cause approach to lung health.

Excellent pediatric care begins with trust and strong relationships between doctor and family.

Our mission is simple: help children breathe better, live healthier, and thrive—no matter where they’re from or how complex their condition may be.

Supporting your family in achieving and maintaining a healthy, active life.

We see each child as a whole person—not just a diagnosis. That means understanding how asthma, allergies, or chronic cough affect not only the lungs, but also sleep, school, play, and overall well-being.

Actually takes time to listen to every concern.

Very friendly, very attentive. Actually takes time to listen to every concern. She figured out what was wrong with my son on the 1st visit. Dr. Scott, you’re AMAZING! 🫶🏻

My girls and I love Dr. Scott and her assistant!

I highly recommend this business if your kids have any breathing or other pulmonary issues.  They are super knowledgeable, full of helpful information and are really great with kids. We’d go here again without hesitation, even from my kids. Thank you Dr. Scott!

Having a doctor that listens to you, and takes care of your kid is the most amazing thing as a mom.

I’m so very appreciative of this sweet woman and her practice. My premie was in need of an appt sooner rather than later and we got in, in a perfectly timely manner.
