LAM Clinics

The LAM Foundation is always seeking ways to improve the care and treatment of all LAM patients.  As such, LAM Clinics have been strategically located in 25 hospitals or medical centers across the United States based on the number of patients in a geographic area and combined with physicians who have an interest in LAM at institutions who value research in rare diseases.  In order to become a LAM Foundation approved LAM Clinic, an application must be submitted and undergo a rigorous review by the Foundation’s LAM Clinic Committee before being accepted into the network.

In partnership with the Histiocytosis Association, LAM clinics are also interested in improving the care and treatment of patients with pulmonary Langerhans cell histioctyosis.
