The Edmonton Down Syndrome Clinic

Since 2008, The Edmonton Down Syndrome (Ds) clinic    has supported families who have children ages 0-20        years old with a diagnosis of Down syndrome.

Operating out of the Stollery Children’s Hospital, the      purpose of the Edmonton Down Syndrome Clinic is to    provide education and information to patients, families  and healthcare professionals about the resources available to people with Down syndrome.

We ensure that the recommended medical guidelines    for Down syndrome are being followed. Currently, over  500 children and families are seen as inpatients and        outpatients at the clinic.

The clinic led is Dr. Melanie Lewis, colleague Dr Edwin    Bolster and Nurse Coordinator, Melissa Lambert.
