About James Mallen, DO
Dr. Mallen was drawn to the field of Pulmonology for several reasons — the complexity of lung disease, the attention to detail required by the field, and the procedural aspects of being a pulmonary specialist. He enjoys working with patients who have high acuity conditions in the ICU. Interacting with patients and their families, as well as the opportunity to be a positive presence during difficult situations is what he loves most about practicing medicine.
In his free time, Dr. Mallen enjoys spending time with his wife and three kids, running, biking, and fishing.
