Whether you're managing chronic asthma or dealing with an acute respiratory infection, breathing problems affect every aspect of daily life. At Millennium Park Medical Associates in Greenwood Village, Dr. Farah Khan provides comprehensive respiratory care, from ongoing asthma management and COPD treatment to prompt diagnosis and treatment of bronchitis, pneumonia, and other respiratory infections.
Our Denver Tech Center practice offers both long-term asthma management for chronic conditions and same-day appointments for acute respiratory illnesses. With quick diagnostic testing and experienced providers who understand complex respiratory conditions, you receive comprehensive respiratory care without visiting multiple specialists for routine management.
Chronic Respiratory Conditions – We provide ongoing management for asthma, COPD, and chronic bronchitis through personalized action plans, medication optimization, including inhalers and controller medications, trigger identification, and regular monitoring. Our approach keeps symptoms under control, prevents emergency situations, and helps you stay active despite chronic breathing conditions.
Acute Respiratory Infections – Same-day appointments available for upper respiratory infections like colds, flu, sinusitis, and throat infections, as well as lower respiratory infections, including bronchitis and pneumonia. These conditions cause cough, fever, congestion, and breathing difficulty. We draw labs in-house to send to universal in network labs to provide rapid diagnosis and quick treatment with appropriate antibiotics when bacterial infections require them.
Respiratory Allergies – Management of seasonal and environmental allergies affecting breathing, including trigger identification, medication strategies, and coordination with allergy specialists when testing is needed to identify specific allergens causing asthma exacerbations.
Chronic symptoms requiring management: Persistent wheezing or shortness of breath, using rescue inhalers more than twice weekly, nighttime breathing problems disrupting sleep, exercise-induced breathing difficulty, or chronic cough lasting over three weeks.
Acute symptoms requiring prompt care: Severe difficulty breathing or swallowing, high fever (103°F+) with respiratory symptoms, chest pain with breathing, coughing up blood, symptoms lasting over two weeks without improvement, or rapidly worsening breathing problems.
Our Greenwood Village office provides same-day sick visits for acute respiratory problems and regular appointments for ongoing asthma and COPD management.

Our convenient Denver Tech Center location offers minimal wait times, same-day appointments, and comprehensive care from providers who know you by name. Whether you need routine care, chronic disease management, or urgent sick visits, expect thorough attention in a practice that values your time.
Asthma causes airway inflammation, leading to wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and coughing, especially at night or during exercise. Allergies typically cause nasal congestion, sneezing, and itchy eyes without significant breathing difficulty. However, allergies frequently trigger asthma symptoms. We evaluate your symptoms, perform testing if needed, and determine whether asthma treatment is appropriate.
See us if your cough lasts more than 2 weeks, produces blood or thick, discolored mucus, causes chest pain, occurs with a high fever or significant breathing difficulty, or disrupts sleep regularly. Persistent coughs can indicate conditions requiring treatment beyond over-the-counter remedies.
Bronchitis is inflammation of the bronchial tubes, causing cough with mucus production, usually from viral infections. Pneumonia isan infection of lung tissue itself, typically more serious with higher fever, more severe breathing difficulty, and chest pain. Physical examination and sometimes chest X-rays help distinguish between them.
Well-controlled asthma typically requires checkups every 3-6 months. If you're adjusting medications, having frequent symptoms, or using rescue inhalers more than twice weekly, more frequent monitoring is needed. We create a schedule based on your asthma control level and adjust as your condition changes.
