Down Syndrome Clinic

Loyola University Health System and the Ronald McDonald® Children's Hospital of Loyola University Medical Center provides a comprehensive program for the diagnosis and management of Down syndrome. The goal of the clinic is to help families identify and manage the special medical needs of children with Down syndrome.

The multi-specialty clinic provides the following services:

• Assessment of the special health-care needs of children with Down syndrome
• Genetic counseling
• Developmental/behavioral assessment

A visit to the clinic is approximately one hour and addresses genetic issues specific to Down syndrome, pediatric anticipatory guidance, as well as a developmental/behavioral assessment. A report of the findings and recommendations are sent to the child's primary care physician to assure the best care of children with Down syndrome.

The clinic is open the second Tuesday of each month and is located on the 2nd floor of the Oakbrook Terrace Medical Center.
