Specialty Clinics
Our specialty clinics provide follow-up care, educational support and training services uniquely designed for each patient’s condition.
The Johns Hopkins All Children’s Pulmonary program offers patients and families three multidisciplinary specialty clinics that bring together teams of experts for coordinated patient care. Our team is dedicated to our patients’ health, well-being and continuity of care. That’s why we work closely with each patient’s health care provider and require a physician referral to make an appointment at one of our follow-up clinics.
