Individualized Care in Private Cystic Fibrosis Practice

Chicago CF CARE Specialists is Not a Clinic!

We deliver medical care in a private practice setting. As medical care for the individual with CF has improved over the past 30 years, delivery of care has started to shift from hospital-based to outpatient-focused.

Our philosophy of seeing each person with cystic fibrosis as an individual with very unique medical and psychosocial needs has led us away from a clinic model where patients are clustered according to a “disease” label. Ancillary services are available based on the need of the individual avoiding the assembly line approach of many hospital-based clinics.

Multiple types of office visits are available based on specific medical needs. Teaching services are also available as needed.
