Depends...: Your family doctor can order the tests for asthma, pulmonary function tests. But, the tests are interpreted by a pulmonary doctor and then your family doctor gets the test results with the interpretation.

Pulmonary or Allergy: The two specialties with expertise in the diagnosis and treatment of asthma are pulmonary, and allergy & immunology. Either should be able to administer and interpret the tests needed to diagnose and properly assess the severity of asthma.
