Transition Care Program at UW Medical Center - Montlake

Pediatricians provide excellent care for children, but most cannot continue to care for their complex patients as those patients grow older. Most patients are ready to move to adult-centered care at about age 21.

The Transition Care Program uses a step-by-step process to help you and your family make a smooth shift from pediatric care to adult care.

We will help you find an adult-care PCP if needed, and will coordinate transition of the specialty care providers you need. We will make sure information about your healthcare needs is clearly shared with your new adult-care providers.
