The Down Syndrome Program at Virginia Mason Franciscan Health is passionate about optimizing physical and mental wellness for all people with Down syndrome and celebrating their individual strengths. Typically, people with Down syndrome have a primary care provider and go to a separate Down syndrome clinic for health maintenance and specialty needs. By comparison, the Virginia Mason Franciscan Health program brings essential services into one convenient location. For families who live outside western Washington, we are pleased to offer consultative services.
