It's hard to separate Dr. Phil Jones from the specialty his been practicing for more than 20 years, which is why this "Getting to Know" episode is a bit Dr. Jones, a bit asthma and pulmonology and a lot allergy.
A native of the Tri-Cities in East Tennessee, Dr. Jones attend undergraduate and graduate school at the University of Alabama. He returned to Johnson City to serve the community he loves as both a pulmonologist and allergist.
Learn the differences between the two disciplines, how newly onset asthma can happen to adults (as old as 84!), why confirming a penicillin allergy is easy and necessary, how allergists offer a life-saving fix for stinging insect or bee allergies, and much more! Oh, and if you know anyone with an old barn who wouldn't mind Dr. Jones rummaging around....
