The State of Alaska Metabolic Clinic helps people with metabolic conditions. The clinic is managed by State of Alaska staff, with a metabolic doctor and dietitian from the University of Utah.

In 2025, the clinics will be held on these dates:

  • Anchorage - April 22-23 and September 23-24

Who qualifies?

The clinic is for those who

  • Receive a diagnosis through the Newborn Bloodspot Screening Program
  • Get a referral from a doctor and approval for clinic treatment
  • Move to Alaska with a diagnosed metabolic condition

How to sign up

Patients need a referral from a pediatrician, primary care provider, or family doctor.
Doctors can fax medical records and contact information to 907-754-3425. The clinic will review the records to determine if the patient qualifies for an appointment. If approved, the clinic manager will reach out to schedule the visit.

How to use

During the clinic visit, patients will:

  • Get a physical exam and review of their family health history
  • Talk with a metabolic doctor about their condition, treatment, and risks
  • Meet with a nutritionist if they need help with their diet

After the visit, the clinic will send appointment notes and recommendations to the patient’s doctor for follow-up care.
