Sarah Neill, MD, MPH

Dr. Sarah Neill provides comprehensive care for acute and chronic lung diseases, including asthma, COPD and interstitial lung diseases. In addition, she treats sleep disordered breathing and other sleep-related diseases such as REM behavior disorder and narcolepsy.

Dr. Neill believes in shared decision-making with her patients. While many pulmonary diseases must be managed rather than cured, her goal is to work with patients to achieve an improved quality of life so they can spend time with their family and do the things they love.

Dr. Neill earned a combined MD and MPH (Masters in Public Health) degree from The University of Texas Health Science Center. She completed a fellowship in sleep medicine at The University of Texas Health Science Center Houston before moving to Owensboro.
