Clinics

Sickle Cell Clinic

Children’s Hospital’s Sickle Cell Clinic is for young patients with sickle cell disease (a chronic blood disorder) For many, it is the first opportunity they have had to meet other patients with their diagnosis and for their parents to connect with each other. It is also intended to be one-stop for these patients and families to be able to meet with all the multiple disciplines they need since sickle cell disease can affect so many aspects of their life.
