About Us
The mission of the Division of Pediatric Infectious Diseases is to provide care to children with suspected or known infections, to minimize the risk of serious pediatric infections, to serve as a resource to the medical community regarding best practices in diagnosis, treatment, and prevention, provide aid to the community and to treat infectious complications effectively when they occur. In addition, we strive to address important issues related to the prevention and treatment of infections in children.
Patient Care
Stanford Medicine Children's Health and Stanford Health Care are physically contiguous. The vast majority of pediatric patient care occurs at Stanford Medicine Children's Health. However, some of the pediatric infectious diseases support services are based at Stanford Health Care.
