Coping and support

By Mayo Clinic staff

A number of support groups are available for people with Noonan syndrome and their families. Talk to your doctor about finding a support group in your area. There are also good resources on the Internet that can direct you to local support groups and sources of information about this syndrome. One such group is the Noonan Syndrome Support Group. You can reach them online or by calling 888-686-2224.
