AboutMetabolic Consultation

Recently, the State of Ohio Department of Health enacted an expansion of our Newborn Screening Program that now screens babies for 36 different inherited disorders. Many of these conditions are exceedingly rare and require specialized testing and restricted diets or medications that are usually outside the realm of expertise for a typical pediatric practice.

The Metabolic Clinic at Children's Hospital is uniquely positioned to provide detailed and comprehensive diagnostic evaluations as well as long-term management for disorders of amino acid, carbohydrate and fatty acid metabolism. The clinic is staffed by two Board-certified Biochemical Geneticists, a Metabolic nurse and two dietitians with extensive experience in the treatment of metabolic disease. On-site laboratory support includes capabilities for measuring amino acids, organic acids, and acylcarnitines, using state-of-the-art technology including tandem mass spectrometry. Patients with a wide variety of disorders including PKU, MUSD, galactosemia, glocogen storage diseases, mucopolysacharidoses, and urea cycle defects receive genetic counseling and coordinated care using a team approach in this clinic.

The Metabolic Clinic is held on Monday afternoons in Suite T4D at Nationwide Children's Hospital. For further information, or to make an appointment, please call (614) 722-3543

We currently have a two-year Medical Genetics and four-year combined Pediatrics/Medical Genetics residency program at our institution. For more information about the program, feel free to visit the Medical Genetics Residency webpage.
