Client Testimonials
"I want to thank NHE, LLC and Linda Nozart, a.k.a. "Thee Asthma Lady," for guiding me throughout the years in asthma education techniques. Because of her coaching, I can deliver more comprehensive care to my patients by identifying barriers encountered by the patient in relations to asthma management. In addition, the resources provided by "Thee Asthma Lady" have helped me improve my patient's outcomes empowering them to take control of their disease. As an Internal medicine physician, it is essential not only to prescribe asthma medications but also to understand the patient's concerns, make sure they know how and when to use their asthma medications, and recognize what triggers their asthma attack to avoid them. Therefore, I can say that the way I teach patients and internal medicine residents is how I learned it from Linda.
