The General Infectious Disease inpatient and outpatient consultation service provides expertise on an incredibly diverse spectrum of infections encountered in internal medicine, surgery, critical care and obstetrics/gynecology.
Our Academic Staff provides comprehensive monitoring of patients discharged on long-term home intravenous antibiotic therapy and continuity of care for patients seen in the hospital by the inpatient consultation services. In some circumstances, our services are chiefly consultative and collaborative, working with referring physicians in the community for diagnostic evaluation and management of complicated infectious diseases. In other circumstances, our care is longitudinal and we serve as the principal caregiver for the patient.
