What doctors specialize in sarcoidosis treatments?

Pulmonologist: Sarcoidosis is a condition where inflammatory deposits can localize in multiple sites in the body, but most commonly the clinical findings are most prevalent in the lungs (hilar adenopathy, micronodule deposition in lung tissue). Changes in pulmonary function studies, coughing, and dyspnea might occur. In heart, sarcoidosis can result in arrhythmias, and cardiomyopathy.

Organ specific: Usually pulmonary physicians take care of the lung problems associated with it. A newly diagnosed sarcoidosis patient needs a eye exam to rule out eye involvement which is carried out by an ophthalmologist. If the patient has neurological symptoms, he/she will need atleast a MRI brain and neurologists sometimes participate in the care in such a scenario. Overall, a pulmonologist is responsible.
