A respiratory therapist don’t get the proper credit they deserve, to answer your question, yes of course but choose a clinic or just make sure the respiratory therapist is specialized in pulmonary rehabilitation. I’m a respiratory therapist and CEO of HRN providing pulmonary and cardiac rehabilitation through telemedicine. We hold a 98.6% success rate and win numerous awards in the field of pulmonary rehabilitation. We (respiratory therapists) are the first go to clinicians that make massive difference in any disease when it relates to lungs. Most of us spend 4 years alone in school in just respiratory while most to all other professional clinicians only require a semester in the subject.

A Respiratory Therapist can help there are different therapies that can decrease WOB and they can also offer their opinions to physicians on therapies and medications that are working versus ones that are not. This can decrease medications and therapies that are not beneficial to the patient. I am an RT not an MD.
