Rare Lung Disease Program

Care for the Most Complex Conditions

If your child has a complex or unusual lung condition, be assured that you have come to the right place. Diagnosing and caring for children with rare lung diseases is our specialty. Seeing an average of 250 patients a year, we are experts in managing conditions such as interstitial lung disease (ILD), surfactant mutations, lung development disorders and lymphatic disorders.

The program is a unique service within the Division of Pulmonary Medicine. Under the direction of Christopher Towe MD, the program includes some of the nation’s most respected experts in lung disease. They combine knowledge of the latest treatments with findings from advanced research to their care of children with the most complex lung diseases.
