Dr . Vines has been my Pulmonologist since he first began practicing. He has saved my life more than once. Dr. Vines is the only Pulmonary physician I will see. I respect his ability as a physician and his professional care and support. He cares for others with deep conviction and compassion. Best Pulmonologist around.
