Why I’m an infectious disease provider

“I chose to work in infectious disease care because it is rewarding to watch patients progress and get better based on treatments we order. It is also very interesting how different each day and each patient can present, even when we are dealing with similar infections. It is truly a diverse specialty.”

Her dedication to maintaining detailed patient records and developing personalized treatment strategies reflects her commitment to providing comprehensive and effective care to each individual she serves.
