Due to COVID-19, if you or your child are experiencing any symptoms, please call our office before coming to your scheduled appointment.
Our Division sees patients at the pediatric outpatient center in Conventus located in Buffalo and provides consultations to inpatients at Oishei Children’s Hospital. All specialists are available to help manage the complete spectrum of infectious diseases common to children. We teach graduate and medical students and perform 300 to 400 inpatient and outpatient consultations annually.
Our Division also works with Home Care Services to manage patients on home antibiotic therapy.
Our division is involved in the clinical investigation of infectious diseases and in basic science research in bacterial and viral immunology.
Current projects focus on immune responses to HIV, COVID-19, bile acid metabolism, extended spectrum beta-lactamase producing gram-negative organisms and bacteriophages.
We work closely with the bacteriology, virology and molecular diagnostics laboratories on the development and application of new diagnostic tests.
