Benjamin Hackett, MD, enjoys helping his patients achieve immense success through pulmonology care.
Dr. Hackett’s sleep apnea patients often share that they feel like an entirely new person with higher levels of energy after starting on a CPAP machine. The same is true with asthma or COPD patients whose new inhaler allows them to finally leave the house without feeling short of breath. Hearing that a patient’s quality of life has improved in a short period of time with the right treatment plan is what uplifts Dr. Hackett as a physician.
Living in Portland, Dr. Hackett loves being able to walk everywhere he wants, and that more green spaces are just a short drive away. Outside of work, he enjoys reading fantasy novels, baking, and game nights with friends.
