Schedule Your SuperVisit Today!
The “SuperVisit” is a clinic visit that allows patients with CF to get all of their yearly tests done in one day. Monitoring for certain health issues is very important in CF. You may also know that there can be a lot of different tests that are used to monitor health.
The “SuperVisit” includes:
- annual laboratory studies
- Oral Glucose Tolerance Test
- chest x-ray
- complete pulmonary function tests
- cardiopulmonary exercise testing
SuperVisits are for patients age 10 and older and occur primarily in Lawrenceville in the morning (lab work is done after fasting overnight). It is possible to combine all this testing (approximately 4 hours) with your clinic visit, or you may prefer to do this on a separate day. It is possible to schedule your clinic visit in your usual clinic location after this testing.
To schedule a SuperVisit, please contact our Super Schedulers at 412-692-5630. For any questions about the testing, please speak to our Super Staff in clinic.
Flu Shots
