Helping Patients and Families Affected by Eosinophilic Disorders Improve Quality of Life
Our specialists understand the ups and downs of living with eosinophilic disorders, which are often misdiagnosed and misunderstood diseases. For families dealing with eosinophil-associated disorders, the road to diagnosis can be frustrating and challenging since symptoms masquerade as a number of conditions. But once diagnosed, symptoms of these disorders can be effectively managed in many cases.
The Cincinnati Center for Eosinophilic Disorders at Cincinnati Children's is the only center in the country that brings together experts in allergy / immunology, gastroenterology and pathology to evaluate, treat and study these chronic medical problems in children. To help patients and families affected by eosinophilic disorders, our team offers helpful resources for families.
