Welcome to the Respiratory & Allergic Disease Foundation (RAD) Web Site.

RAD is a not-for-profit organization founded by physicians. RAD recognizes the need for consistent, balanced, and high-quality education for healthcare practitioners focused on improving the quality of patient care. RAD is pleased to present a wide range of educational initiatives, including those developed with the guidance of our one-of-a-kind national educational faculty network, the Advancing Respiratory Care (ARC) Network.

Please join us in welcoming Michael S. Blaiss, MD, to the position of Secretary/Treasurer on the RAD Foundation’s Board of Directors. This position was left vacant in August by the passing of Gail Shapiro, MD. Dr. Blaiss will continue the high standards of content and program excellence that the RAD Foundation prides itself on.
