The Cystic Fibrosis Care Center  (CF) at Texas Children's Hospital provides comprehensive clinical services to help patients, families and referring physicians deal with the many problems cystic fibrosis causes.

The multi-disciplinary CF care team includes pulmonologists, physician assistants, nurses, social workers, dietitians, psychologists, gastroenterologists, diabetologists, pharmacists, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and child life specialists.

The center is accredited as a "Center of Excellence" by the United States Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Patients have access to new therapies before they are generally available when they participate in research being performed to evaluate these modalities.
