We provide a dedicated pediatric NF clinic that delivers specialized care for pediatric patients, who frequently have health concerns that are different from those of adult patients. Our pediatric patients have access to a range of medical specialists, who collaborate in providing care as part of our multidisciplinary team. Also, our pediatric program features a dedicated pediatric neuro-oncology clinic led by Katie Metrock, MD. The pediatric neuro-oncology clinic assists in the management and treatment of brain and spinal tumors, optic pathway gliomas, complex plexiform neurofibromas, and malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs).
Patients in the adult and pediatric NF clinics have access to multiple other specialties as part of our comprehensive, team-based approach to evaluation and treatment, including but not limited to:
- Cardiology
- Endocrinology
- Neurology
- Neuropsychology
- Neurosurgery
- Adult and pediatric ophthalmology
- Orthopedics
- Radiology
- Radiation Oncology
