Multispecialty care is a highly utilized method of providing care for children with T21 within our institution, often used to ease the scheduling burden and risk of these children and families.

With this understanding, patients in need of multispecialty care may benefit by either considering a single specialty case or limit multispecialty scheduling to a 4-h duration.
