Chronic Cough: Mood & Quality of Life Buster

Where in the world are there many Chronic Cough Specialists?  The United Kingdom, Italy, Australia, and Japan are home to many of the global physician and scientific leaders in Chronic Cough.  Dr. Mandel Sher is just returning from presenting at The American Cough Conference where he enjoyed sharing updates on Chronic Cough with his global Chronic Cough colleagues.

is one of very few Chronic Cough Specialists in the United States.  While based in the Tampa Bay area of Florida, referring physicians and people suffering with Chronic Cough throughout the State of Florida and the Southeastern United States come to see Dr. Sher.  For many of these patients, Dr. Sher is their “last hope” for Cough relief and resolution.

The European community conducted an online survey, available in 12 languages, of 1,120 people from 29 different countries.  The study was published in the journal, Lung.  Most participants responded that the overall quality of their lives had been negatively affected by their cough – specifically their mood and participation in activities.   This finding is echoed by people with cough who are FINALLY motivated to call Dr. Mandel Sher’s Center for Cough:

“I used to sing in choir but can’t anymore.”  “Volunteering at church is really important to me but my constant coughing makes everyone act like they don’t want to be around me even though I know I’m not sick.”  “My family is worried about me.  They say I don’t sound healthy.”  “My job is on the line.  I have to talk to clients a lot and my constant coughing is distracting and a real turn-off.”

Dr. Mandel Sher and the Center For Cough team listen carefully to patients’ personal histories and observe that people who have been suffering with Chronic Cough for years, and even decades, express “HITTING THE WALL.”  Once they have made-up their minds that they are not going to learn to live with cough and that they are not going to give-up in-spite of visiting other doctors and trying but failing other cough treatments , they finally call Dr. Sher and want to be soon as soon as possible.

TIME IS A TERRIBLE THING TO WASTE.  Why let Chronic Cough be a downer that affects your mood?  SEIZE THE DAY – CONTACT DR. MANDEL SHER TODAY TO LEARN HOW HE WILL HELP YOU REDUCE YOUR COUGH FREQUENCY AND INTENSITY:  727-393-8067. 

Dr. Sher on The Importance of Being Distinct: Establishing a Chronic Cough Identity

Doctors Kelkar and Sher Facilitate Workshop: American Cough Conference

“Chronic Cough is a distinct medical condition that deserves a distinct identity,”  says Dr. Mandel Sher.

Dr. Sher and his colleague, Dr. Pramod Kelkar of the Minneapolis area, will be sharing the podium at the Sixth American Cough Conference to facilitate a workshop on developing a cough center.  They will be speaking to an audience of global cough doctors, researchers, and scientists gathering in Reston, Virginia this Friday and Saturday, June 9 and 10.

Dr. Sher’s philosophy about the importance of establishing a distinct identify for Chronic Cough is rooted in his experience since creating Center For Cough in 2009.  Dr. Sher believes that a distinct identity, a unique fingerprint, for Chronic Cough is key to patient access, awareness and advocacy, and a focused approach to diagnosis and treatment.  Since opening Center for Cough, Dr. Sher has heard patients say over-and-over again that they didn’t know there is such a thing as a “cough doctor.”  Surprising given that cough is consistently the number one medical reason for visits to the doctor in the United States.

Dr. Sher’s ongoing outreach efforts target primary and specialty care physicians as well direct to prospective, current, and alumni patients.  The primary purpose of outreach initiatives is education which leads to awareness and results in timely intervention and effective treatment for people suffering with Chronic Cough.

Dr. Sher is the only doctor in the Southeast who has a distinct and dedicated focus on Chronic Cough.  There are very few Cough Doctors in the United States.  The American Cough Conference gathers Cough leaders and thinkers to discuss groundbreaking updates in Chronic Cough treatment.  Dr. Kelkar, Dr. Sher’s C0-Workshop facilitator, Dr. Peter Dicpinigatis, Chairman of the American Cough Conference and Professor at Albert Einstein College of Medicine and Director of Montefiore’s Cough Center in New York, Dr. Jacky Smith of University of Manchester in England and Dr. Sher’s Co-Author on recently published study results, along with many other friends and colleagues will be in attendance.

Cough that won’t go away is not normal and should be evaluated by a Cough Doctor.  Chronic Cough can be effectively treated to reduce cough frequency and cough severity and improve the overall quality of life – don’t learn to live with it.
