Emory Down Syndrome Clinic

The Emory Down Syndrome Clinic serves children with Down syndrome primarily from birth through age five. Each family's visit is an individual appointment. Our clinic team includes physicians and staff who have extensive experience in genetics and development with an emphasis on the needs of individuals with Down syndrome and their families. Our clinic is a specialized resource and complements the care provided by your child's pediatrician.

During your initial clinic visit, we will review your child's chromosome studies, discuss Down syndrome in general, complete a physical examination, provide a developmental evaluation, explain the recommended healthcare guidelines for children with Down syndrome, make referrals to specialists as needed, and most importantly, address your questions and concerns.

For information and to schedule an appointment, please call: Patricia Olney, M.S., C.G.C, Clinic Coordinator, 404-778-8484 polney@genetics.emory.edu
