Pediatric Infectious Diseases

Children and their families trust the skill and compassionate care they receive from St. Luke’s Children’s specialists in infectious disease and immune deficiency. Our experienced team cares for infants, children and teens with infections that are serious, complex, or chronic. This includes complicated or recurrent Staphylococcal infections (including MRSA), and other antibiotic-resistant infections, as well as infectious diseases related to international travel, insect or animal exposures. We diagnose and treat viral diseases such as CMV, EBV, HIV, Herpes simplex virus, and Hepatitis C, as well as congenital infections. We also manage unexplained or recurrent fevers, periodic fevers, frequent infections and immune deficiency conditions. 

We offer international adoption screening, prenatal counseling visits for mothers diagnosed with certain infections, and bone marrow transplant follow-up care for immune deficiency diagnoses, including SCID (severe combined immunodeficiency).
