Infectious Diseases
Our infectious disease specialists diagnose and treat patients with
AIDS and HIV, meningitis, influenza and other infectious diseases. We
also offer HIV testing, immunizations and other medical services for
foreign travelers, as well as clinical trials to research new and
innovative treatments.
Inflammatory Conditions
- Our rheumatologists are experts at treating arthritis and a wide
variety of other painful inflammatory conditions, including lupus,
fibromyalgia and osteoporosis. These conditions affect the body's
joints, soft tissues and connective tissues.
- These inflammatory, or rheumatological, conditions are caused by an
overactive immune response in the body. In other words, the body
actually attacks its own cells.
- We strive to help patients manage their conditions over the long term
and provide therapies that help manage pain and improve movement.
