The purpose of the Infectious Diseases Fellow continuity clinic is to provide the Fellow with the experience of following his or her patients for a prolonged period of time to learn the course of infectious diseases along with the management of infectious diseases as outpatients. Infectious Diseases Fellows attend continuity clinics at the VA Medical Center (VAMC) and Medical University Hospital:
