Home Clinical Services Respiratory Diseases
Children's Division of Respiratory Diseases provides care for infants, children and young adults with both chronic and acute respiratory disorders. The Division provides a wide range of patient care services and an active program of basic and clinical research and medical training program.

As one of the largest pediatric pulmonary services in the country, Children's Division of Respiratory Diseases cares for more than 8,000 patients each year. Our multi-disciplinary team of pediatric pulmonologists, pulmonary nurse specialists, physical therapists and social workers diagnose and provide care to children with numerous pulmonary disorders including those listed under "Related Topics" in the upper right corner.

To handle emergency situations, two physicians are on call 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. A nursing hot line is also available for call-in questions, as is a prescription line to provide prompt prescription refills.
