Specialized training in the diagnosis and treatment of communicable diseases

Kelsey-Seybold Infectious Disease experts treat a wide range of infectious and immunologic diseases caused by bacterial viruses, fungi, and parasites at home and abroad. They have specialized knowledge of how different antibiotics and other drugs fight infections, as well as the potential side effects of these treatments.

Not every infectious disease requires the attention of an Infectious Disease specialist. Your primary care physician can provide care for most infections, but in some cases, specialized expertise is needed to diagnose or manage specific infectious diseases.

Our Infectious Disease specialists are called on to treat communicable diseases such as meningitis, bone infections, heart infections, post-operative infections, HIV/AIDS, Lyme disease, hepatitis, and more.
