The Winchester Center for Lung Disease, (WCLD), a multidisciplinary center for the diagnosis and care of patients with lung disease, opens in North Haven Medical Center on March 30, 2021. Located at 6 Devine Street, WCLD replaces the Winchester Chest Clinic. The center is a joint partnership with Yale New Haven Hospital, Yale Medicine, and Yale School of Medicine’s Section of Pulmonary, Critical Care & Sleep Medicine (Yale-PCCSM).
The state-of-the-art facility has 30 exam, consultation, and procedure rooms, and access to nearby laboratory services and multi-modality imaging. It will more than triple the clinical capacity of Yale-PCCSM’s practice, increasing the access patients with pulmonary symptoms and diseases have to Yale’s nationally renowned lung experts.
