Children’s Lung Specialists
Cystic Fibrosis Center of Southern Nevada
In Memory of Dr. Ruben P. Diaz
Dr. Ruben P. Diaz founded Children’s Lung Specialists after moving to Las Vegas in 1991 and served as Director of Pediatric Pulmonary Services and the Cystic Fibrosis Center at University Medical Center. He was a board-certified pediatric pulmonologist who cared deeply for children and families throughout Southern Nevada.
During his 14 years in Las Vegas, Dr. Diaz participated in clinical drug trials and research focused on cystic fibrosis, asthma, exercise-induced bronchospasm and other pediatric pulmonary disorders. He was remembered for his compassion, generosity and tireless advocacy for children, regardless of a family’s ability to pay or language. He passed away in December 2004 at age 51.
