Patient Care
Improve treatment for the Louisville community. Our commitment to patient care is highlighted in the array of services we offer. Our programs focus on international health, HIV prevention and support, and general infectious diseases.
The 550 Clinic assists in the diagnosis and management of patients at the University of Louisville and Veterans Administration hospitals, as well as outpatient clinics at the University of Louisville. Physicians, nurse practitioners, and physical assistants also assist with management of HIV infected individuals in the prison and jail system through the Kentucky TeleHealth Network.
Health issues can occur anywhere in the world, at any time. The University of Louisville Vaccine & International Travel Clinic specializes in adult and adolescent infectious diseases and vaccines, infection prevention and control, and public and global health.
Our Civil Surgeon Program helps refugees, immigrants, and their families take the first steps in applying for their green card. We provide completion of I-693 and other government forms, a physical examination, vaccines, and testing for tuberculosis and other conditions. Our program offers competitive pricing and provides all services on-site in our clinic.
The University of Louisville Hospital Epidemiology Program aims to identify the determinants of health, disease, disability, and death to promote health, control disease, and encourage prevention. Experts mitigate infectious disease outbreaks, design health and surveillance programs, and create primary and secondary preventative interventions. Most importantly, the team generates new knowledge about the causes of health and disease and guide policy, promotion, and medical treatment.
