Private Practice NetWork

A community NetWork that develops, promotes, and exchanges ideas among the
subspecialties of chest and critical care medicine in the private practice setting.

Welcome to the Private Practice NetWork. If this is your first visit to our NetWork Web site, we hope you find it informative and interesting. For the return visitor, we appreciate your input and support. The Private Practice NetWork consists of physicians, nurses, respiratory care practitioners, and practice administrators who all share a common goal of enhancing patient care delivery in the private practice setting. We hope to continually upgrade the NetWork site to provide members with important information and links to resources, which will prove useful in their practice. If you note that there is something that you believe would be of benefit to others and would like to have it added to the site, we encourage you to contact one of the steering committee members or our staff liaison, Marla Brichta. Your involvement is key to the success of this NetWork, as well as the ACCP as an organization. We look forward to hearing from you.
