Immune Deficiency and Immune Dysregulation Disorders
Immune deficiency and dysregulation disorders are more common than most realize. According to the Immune Deficiency Foundation, there are more than 400 primary immune deficiencies. Add to that acquired immune disorders, and the number grows climb steadily. Unfortunately, many who have these diseases are undiagnosed or misdiagnosed.
At National Jewish Health in Denver, we have one of one of the most advanced immune deficiency and dysregulation disorders programs in Colorado. Our specialists have a deep level of expertise diagnosing and treating the most complex primary and acquired immune disorders. And, as part of the nation’s leading respiratory hospital, our team has extensive experience treating immune disorders that impact the lungs.
Our program offers coordinated care from experts in multiple specialties, state-of-the-art diagnostic and genetic testing, personalized treatments and access to the latest clinical trials and therapies. Our goal is to make sure our patients receive the right diagnosis and care to improve their quality of life.
