Down Syndrome Health Issues
Created by Dr. Len Leshin, this is one of the most comprehensive web sites covering medical aspects of Down syndrome I've come across. General information about DS and specific information on conditions associated with DS. Be sure to download the Health Care Guidelines for People with DS. Keep a copy for yourself and give a copy to your physician. Dr. Leshin has also compiled an extensive list of resource links. Make sure you bookmark this page because you'll come back again and again.
