OUR PROGRAMS & SERVICES

We conduct research on HIV and AIDS through community-based clinical trials. The trials examine prevention and treatment therapies for HIV related opportunistic infections as well as treatments against progression of HIV disease. The same physician and research nurse closely follow each patient through the duration of the studies. And depending on the location where the patient is receiving their care, a social worker may also be available to assist patients with social, financial, and emotional needs.  Also, if we don't have a particular specialty on site, our staff is always willing to make appropriate referrals.
