KRMC welcomes Pulmonary and Critical Care Specialist to Kingman Pulmonary Associates

KINGMAN – Kingman Regional Medical Center (KRMC) is pleased to welcome Ordessia Charran, MD, to our medical staff.

As a physician specializing in Pulmonary and Critical Care medicine, Dr. Charran cares for patients in the hospital’s ICU (intensive care unit) with a variety of conditions, including acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), septic shock, diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), seizures and other critical illness.

Dr. Charran also sees patients at Kingman Pulmonary Associates, treating conditions including asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), interstitial lung disease, pulmonary fibrosis, pulmonary hypertension, pulmonary embolism, pulmonary nodules, lung cancer and other lung diseases.

Dr. Charran earned her doctorate from St. George’s University School of Medicine. She completed her residency in Internal Medicine at Georgetown University Hospital/MedStar Washington Hospital Center in Washington, DC. She then completed a Pulmonary and Critical Care Fellowship at Mount Sinai St Luke’s/ Roosevelt and Beth Israel hospitals in New York City. She practiced there for three years before relocating to Arizona.

Communication is key in Dr. Charran’s approach. She believes in teaching patients and families about their conditions and medications, empowering them to take charge of their health. She practices evidence-based medicine and keeps pace with the latest innovations in Pulmonary and Critical Care medicine.
