Wayne Health Infectious Disease specialists can help you prepare for international travel with vaccines and health recommendations including water, food and insect precautions. If  our Infectious Disease specialists do not have the appropriate vaccines for those traveling abroad, we will connect patients with providers/clinics that do.

Wayne Health Infectious Disease specialists have years of experience and extensive knowledge of infectious diseases. We offer the latest prevention and treatment options. We also use a team approach to treatment by conducting a weekly conference that includes Infectious Diseases grand rounds (city-wide meetings with case presentations) and also hold a monthly research conference to ensure that we have the most up-to-date information to provide the best treatment for our patients.

Wayne Health physicians and researchers are also faculty at Wayne State University School of Medicine who conduct basic, translational and clinical research. This makes the latest treatments and clinical trials available to you sooner than other providers without a medical school affiliation

Our faculty physicians conduct research of HIV, hepatitis C, mycology, gram-positive bacteria (MRSA, VRE), transplant-associated infections and general infectious diseases.
