Children face many germs and viruses as they explore their surroundings, making infectious diseases a common part of childhood. While most infections are mild, some need careful monitoring and treatment. As your child's Pediatrician, Dr. Desale specializes in identifying, treating, and preventing these illnesses.
Our services for Infectious Diseases include:
- Acute Illness Management: Quick diagnosis and treatment of common illnesses like the flu, strep throat, ear infections, common cold, and stomach viruses.
- Advanced Diagnostics: Using effective diagnostic tools to quickly identify the cause, ensuring targeted and effective treatment (for example, distinguishing between bacterial and viral infections).
- Managing Chronic or Recurring Infections: Developing strategies to manage and prevent recurring infections like urinary tract infections (UTIs) or ongoing respiratory issues.
- Parent Education: Providing clear guidance on when to worry, how to handle symptoms at home, and preventing the spread of infection to others.
We work hard to help your child feel better quickly and safely.
