As a member of the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation Care Center Network, the UAB interstitial lung disease (ILD) program is an integrated practice unit that delivers the most advanced management plans for ILD, including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and sarcoidosis. We are one of the largest sarcoidosis centers in the southeast, and our lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) clinic is one of only 24 nationally.
