About St. Luke's Children's Muscular Dystrophy Clinic

St. Luke’s Children’s Muscular Dystrophy Clinic offers specialized, multidisciplinary care for children with neuromuscular diseases. Our team focuses on accurate diagnosis, comprehensive medical management, and interventions that address disease symptoms and progression with the goal of improving quality of life and promoting independence.

Patients are typically seen once a year in our coordinated clinic, where they meet with multiple specialists—all in one location, during a single visit. This streamlined approach ensures families receive thorough, personalized care without the need for multiple appointments.

Our core team includes a physiatrist, neurologist, cardiologist, dietitian, genetic counselor, physical therapist, and a dedicated patient care coordinator. Based on each child’s unique needs, we can also coordinate additional consultations with specialists in orthopedics, genetics, occupational therapy, neuropsychology, pulmonary medicine, and respiratory therapy.

Common conditions we treat include:

  • Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD)
  • Becker muscular dystrophy
  • Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT)
  • Congenital muscular dystrophy (CMD)
  • Mitochondrial myopathy
  • Myotonic muscular dystrophy
  • Merosin-deficient congenital muscular dystrophy
  • Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA)
