Asthma

The main goals of the UI Health Asthma Clinic are to improve the health of adults with asthma by focusing on patient education, patient-centered asthma management to provide personalized and specialized care, and engaging in research that will improve the care of asthma. The Asthma Clinic partners with many different disciplines including specialists (Allergy, ENT, Pulmonary), primary care and emergency room providers, nurses and pharmacists to diagnose and treat asthma and individualize comprehensive asthma care.

Sleep Disorder

The Sleep Science Center utilizes a multidisciplinary team approach, providing a comprehensive continuum of care from diagnosis, individual treatment plans and education. Sleep is essential for a person’s health and well-being, yet millions of people do not get enough sleep and many suffer from lack of sleep. Surveys suggest 50-70 million Americans suffer from sleep disorders, and 60% of adults report having sleep problems a few nights a week or more. Most of these problems go undiagnosed and untreated.

Sarcoidosis

The Bernie Mac Sarcoidosis Translational Advanced Research (STAR) Center at UI Health is committed to provide patients with outstanding care and to evaluate patients in a timely, compassionate and courteous manner. We provide comprehensive care for patients with all forms of sarcoidosis.
