NORD Offers Info on Rare Disorders

From Aarskog Syndrome to Zollinger Ellison Syndrome and everything in between, the Rare Disease Database from the National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD) is often the only place one can find information of significant quality and quantity about lesser-known illnesses.

Established in 1983 by concerned patients and families, NORD is a non-governmental agency dedicated to distributing high-quality information on "orphan illnesses" -- those conditions that affect fewer than 200,000 people in the United States. NORD specialists and physicians write all of the content found on the website and work to create clear, understandable reports that are based on scientific literature.
