Infectious Disease
Infectious Disease The Infectious Diseases practice at Boston Medical Center offers comprehensive diagnostic and therapeutic services in all areas of Infectious Diseases, with particular expertise in AIDS, Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs), diseases incurred through international travel, and Lyme disease. The magnitude and variety of our patient population offers our physicians extensive opportunity for clinical research and offers our patients the opportunity to benefit by participating.

The Center for HIV/AIDS Care and Research (CHACR) at Boston Medical Center offers a continuum of services for patients who are HIV-positive or have AIDS. We have the largest HIV/AIDS program in the New England area and one of Massachusetts' s largest STD practices.

The International Travel Program is designed to keep departing travelers from contracting any diseases or illnesses overseas, as well as to offer immediate, aggressive treatment for returning travelers who may have acquired a disease. This program is unique because it offers both adult and pediatric care.
