Shatha W. Yousef

Overview

I am a pediatric pulmonologist trained on treating children's lung diseases, such as cystic fibrosis, asthma, and chronic lung disease of prematurity. My primary interest is cystic fibrosis: a genetic disease that affects the lungs ability to clear mucus and infections. There have been many advances made in cystic fibrosis treatment over the years and sharing those advances with our families is my favorite part of practice. I have two children and enjoy all interactions with our pediatric population.
