Wolfram Syndrome Clinic Program

At the Washington University Medical Center’s Center for Advanced Medicine, we have established the Wolfram Syndrome Clinic program, aimed at improving clinical care for patients with Wolfram syndrome and related disorders, including WFS1-related deafness and optic nerve atrophy.

Our program provides genetic evaluations, education, and counseling services to patients and family members of all ages who have either been diagnosed with Wolfram syndrome, are suspected of having it, or have WFS1-related disorders.

Our team collaborates with other specialists, including neurologists, neuro-ophthalmologists, urologists, medical geneticists, and endocrinologists at our medical center, to provide personalized management plans. We strive to see patients either on the same day or within two consecutive days. Our services are available to both pediatric and adult patients.
