Meet William Anderson, MD

Before going into Allergy, I completed a combined residency treating both children and adults. Given this background, I care deeply about how a child's asthma and allergies can affect them both now and throughout their lives. I appreciate the significant impact these conditions make on both the child's quality of life as well as the whole family. As such, I work in partnership with families to provide comprehensive, efficient, personalized care for my patients that fits their needs and life. I value a multidisciplinary team-based approach to form a support network for patients and their families.

"The most rewarding part of my job is being able to see these kids get out and do the things they want to do."

- Dr. William Anderson

Clinical interests

My primary clinical interest is asthma, including difficult-to-treat and severe asthma. I am the co-director of the Multidisciplinary Asthma Clinic, which takes a team approach to improve asthma care for children by working with Allergy, Pulmonary Medicine, Social Work, Speech Therapy, and Nutrition. I also see patients who have environmental allergies, food allergies, nasal symptoms, drug allergies, and hives. While I am happy to see children of all ages, I am particularly interested in helping adolescents transition their care from pediatric to adult medicine.

Research and grants

For Patients:
My research focuses on the treatment of difficult-to-control and severe asthma, including pharmaceutical studies and the incorporation of technology to help patients who are still having problematic asthma despite using their current medications. I am also interested in helping to improve the transition of pediatric patients to adult care.

For Referring Providers:
My research interests primarily focus on difficult-to-treat and severe asthma including pharmaceutical studies, adherence monitoring, and patient engagement. In addition, I am working to establish a transitional care program here at Children's Hospital Colorado.
