Preventive, diagnostic and therapeutic care for children affected by all aspects of infectious diseases

Unique in Suffolk County, the Division of Pediatric Infectious Diseases at Stony Brook Children's provides inpatient and outpatient consultation services for children with all types of infectious diseases — acute and chronic, covering pathogens ranging from bacterial, viral, fungal and parasitic to Tuberculosis. Located at the epicenter of Lyme disease in North America, Stony Brook investigators are developing new diagnostic tests, vaccines and treatments for that disease as well as many others affecting children's health. As Suffolk County's only Pediatric-Maternal HIV/AIDS Center, we also have an extensive basic and clinical research program, bringing cutting edge therapies to the region.

Our Team

The Division of Pediatric Infectious Diseases consists of three full-time, board-certified physicians performing clinical care and consultations. To provide comprehensive care for our HIV-infected patients, we also tap into the many other services available at our institution including psychiatry, neurology and surgery, including all the pediatric that our academic medical center has available. In addition, we have a nutritionist and social worker primarily devoted to HIV-impacted families as part of our multidisciplinary approach to this disease.
