Collaborating to improve patient care.

We are an interdisciplinary group of healthcare providers dedicated to quality care using an airway focused approach. As a health collective, we are continually learning, educating the community, and providing a network for collaboration.

Providing you with a space to learn and collaborate.

Our study club members have the opportunity to join quarterly meetings where we focus on expanding our knowledge on a wide variety of airway related topics and collaborate with like-minded providers from the Tucson area.

  • "Our hope in establishing a study club with providers in airway, breathing and sleep is to create a multidisciplinary approach to care where we can learn from one another, share our findings and work together to educate our community and especially those patients who struggle to breathe, sleep and thrive."

  • We cannot accomplish all that we need to do without working together.
