摘要
In a large academic medical center, patient requests from the community and internal referrals for evaluation of suspected hypermobility conditions were being denied consultation because services specific to this condition were not available. We identified this gap and developed a comprehensive evaluation for this unique patient population. The objective of this paper is to demonstrate a solution for improving outcomes in a neglected patient population by establishing an innovative outpatient clinic specifically tailored for patients with EDS.
