Living with asthma in North Texas can be challenging. From Grayson County’s heavy seasonal pollen to sudden weather changes, it doesn’t take much for breathing to feel harder than it should. At One Family Clinic & Urgent Care, we believe breathing should feel natural, not like a constant battle.
Our board-certified Nurse Practitioners focus on both immediate relief and long-term asthma control, offering compassionate, evidence-based care for every stage of asthma management. Whether you’re dealing with a sudden flare-up or looking for consistent primary care support, we’re here to help you breathe easier with clarity and confidence.
If your condition requires additional evaluation, we can also coordinate referrals to asthma or pulmonary specialists, ensuring continuity of care and the right level of support, without leaving you to navigate the system on your own.
We operate on a self-pay and Medicare Part B model, making high-quality, personalized care accessible and affordable for our North Texas community.
Understanding Asthma in Sherman and Grayson County
Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition that causes the airways to become inflamed and narrowed, making breathing more difficult — especially during flare-ups. For many people in Sherman and across Grayson County, asthma isn’t just a diagnosis; it’s something they actively manage in day-to-day life.
Our local environment can make asthma more challenging. Seasonal pollen, changing weather patterns, and other North Texas triggers often play a role in worsening symptoms or causing sudden flare-ups. Over time, these factors can take a toll if asthma isn’t properly managed.
With the right care, education, and ongoing support, asthma can be controlled effectively. Understanding how local conditions affect your breathing is an important step toward feeling more confident, comfortable, and in control of your health.

Our Approach to Asthma Treatment at One Family Clinic
At One Family Clinic, we don’t just treat symptoms; we care for the person behind them. Our focus is on easing breathing difficulties in the moment while also helping you build confidence and stability for the long term.
Caring for Asthma Flare-Ups
When you come in with an asthma flare-up, our providers move promptly and thoughtfully to help you breathe easier. Care may include:
- Breathing treatments to help open airways and relieve tightness
- Medications taken by mouth or injection when appropriate, to calm airway inflammation
Our goal during a flare-up is simple: stabilize symptoms, reduce discomfort, and help you feel safe and supported.
Ongoing Asthma Support
Asthma care doesn’t end once symptoms settle. We work alongside you to support better day-to-day control and reduce future flare-ups by focusing on:
- Clear guidance for managing symptoms and knowing when to seek care
- Medication review and adjustment, making sure your inhalers or prescriptions match your needs and lifestyle
- Identifying triggers and helping you minimize exposure
If your asthma requires a higher level of evaluation or ongoing specialty care, we can coordinate referrals to pulmonary or asthma specialists to ensure you receive the right support without gaps in care.
Whether you need urgent relief or steady, ongoing management, our team is here to help you breathe easier with attentive, personalized care.
Frequently Asked Questions about Asthma Treatment
First, stay calm. Sit upright and take slow, steady breaths. Use your rescue inhaler (usually Albuterol) as directed by your previous medical provider. If your symptoms do not improve within 15-20 minutes, or if they worsen, seek medical attention at our clinic or the nearest emergency facility.
Asthma treatment is typically two-fold. Quick-relief medications open the airways during a flare-up. Long-term controller medications are taken daily to prevent inflammation from building up in the first place.
Common triggers include respiratory infections such as flu or COVID, allergens, smoke, exercise, cold air, and environmental irritants.
