Dr. Luke Wall is an Associate Clinical Professor of Pediatrics in the Section of Allergy
and Immunology at LSU Health Sciences Center New Orleans School of Medicine. He received
his MD at LSU Health New Orleans, then completed Pediatrics Residency, an additional
year as Pediatrics Chief Resident, and Allergy and Immunology fellowship at LSU and
Manning Family Children's. He currently practices at Manning Family Children’s main
campus in addition to satellite locations in Covington, Baton Rouge, and Hammond.
While his career is clinically focused, he enjoys balancing the complex medical care
of children with clinical research and teaching. In addition to teaching Pediatric
residents and subspecialty fellows from a variety of fields, he teaches medical students
both in the lecture hall and at the bedside. A highlight of his work involves bringing
clinical immunology concepts to the lecture hall in the LSU School of Medicine, giving
lectures and leading team-based learning exercises each year in the Micro 100 course
for first-year students. He also participates in interprofessional education involving
students from all six schools within the LSU Health Sciences Center. His clinical
and research interests include inborn errors of immunity (IEI) and genetic syndromes
which have increased risk for infections. Dr. Wall has been active in several clinical
trials centered on the treatment of immunodeficiencies. He is a participant in the
Primary Immunodeficiency Treatment Consortium (PIDTC)- a national network of treatment
and research centers for patients with IEI, and is proud to be part of the Jeffrey
Modell Foundation Network for primary immunodeficiencies.
