And, while healthy people who exercise too strenuously or go to high altitudes can experience labored breathing at times, true shortness of breath can be symptomatic of a serious health issue and should be checked by a doctor.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you often experience shortness of breath, it\u2019s important to schedule a full physical exam with your doctor. He or she may order certain tests or have you see a specialist. If there is cardiovascular involvement, that specialist will probably be a cardiologist like the doctors at Manhattan Cardiology. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Located on the east side of Manhattan at 51<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">st<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Street and Third Avenue, Manhattan Cardiology offers world-class heart and vascular care and treatment.
