Overview
Mridu Gulati, MD, is a pulmonologist and critical care specialist who also focuses on occupational and environmental lung diseases. She cares for people with interstitial lung disease (a group of conditions that cause scarring in the lungs) and sarcoidosis (an inflammatory disease that can affect multiple organs, especially the lungs).
An associate professor of medicine (pulmonary, critical care and sleep medicine) at Yale School of Medicine, Dr. Gulati earned her medical degree from New York University. After completing a residency in internal medicine at the University of Michigan Medical Center, she pursued fellowships in pulmonary and critical care at Yale School of Medicine the University of California, San Francisco and New York University School of Medicine.
