Asthma Education Consultants of Georgia

Asthma Education Consultants of Georgia is a Marietta based business that offers in home disease management counseling for Asthma and lung disease. Founded by John Nydam, RRT, RPFT, AE-C in 2010, we currently serve Cobb, Douglas, Cherokee and North Fulton counties. Arrangements can be made for other areas.  

Our philosophy is to provide:

1. Competent, correct and specific asthma care in the form of evaluations and asthma action plans in order to reduce the disparaging effects of asthma.
2. To assist patients in taking more responsibility and control in the management of their disease as well as reduce hospital admissions and emergency room visits.
3. To assist patients in working with their primary care providers and specialists in following a plan that is achievable, affordable, and satisfies both physician as well as patient.

Asthma is one of the most controllable diseases of today. Having to go to the Emergency room, Clinic, or be admitted to the hospital is not being in control. Working with your doctor and an asthma educator can help you lead a more active and productive life as well as saving money and time waiting to be seen.
