Dr. Lawlor has three offices in Kansas where he specializes in Pulmonology, Critical Care Medicine, Palliative Care and Internal Medicine.

Pulmonologists are specialized physicians who diagnose and treat diseases and disorders of the respiratory tract. As a respiratory specialist, Dr. Lawlor may diagnose and treat pulmonary disorders such as asthma, pulmonary fibrosis, lung cancer, lung disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), emphysema and bronchitis, among a host of others.
Critical care specialists like Dr. Lawlor provide life-saving care for patients in critical condition. Patients are usually cared for in within intensive care units (ICUs), and may receive life and organ support. Dr. Lawlor may also work to stabilize patients and perform time-sensitive, potentially life-saving procedures.
Palliative care physicians provide specialized medical care for people living with serious illness. Doctors who specialize in palliative care focus on providing relief from symptoms and stress, offering care that is focused on improving quality of life for both the patient and the family. Palliative care is appropriate at any age, and at any stage in a serious illness, and can be provided along with curative treatment.
The specialty of internal medicine is an area of primary care for adults. Dr. Lawlor specializes in diagnosing and treating cross-system illnesses that may affect multiple organ systems. He may also refer patients to specialist physicians when medically needed. For instance, patients with serious heart problems could be referred to a cardiologist for further diagnostic tests or therapies.
