ID Care Center

ID Care Center is a medical clinic in East Riverdale, MD. The practice specializes in infectious disease, diagnosing and treating infections caused by bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, including conditions such as Lyme disease, cellulitis, urinary tract infections, sexually transmitted infections including syphilis, chronic hepatitis, MRSA, and C. diff. Their physicians determine which diagnostic tests and treatments are appropriate for each patient, with treatment often involving antibiotic medications given orally or intravenously. The team also manages resistant infections by developing strategies to prevent resistant bacteria from spreading, and provides travel medicine guidance for patients preparing to travel. Patients are seen in both clinic and hospital settings. The clinic serves Howard, Montgomery, and Prince George's Counties, treating individuals in the local community and across the region.

The infectious disease team treats a wide range of conditions beyond those most commonly associated with the specialty, including surgical wound infections, infections in bone marrow and solid organ transplant recipients, vascular infections, tick-borne infections, skin and soft tissue infections, and bone and joint infections. The clinic operates Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM and can be reached at (410) 997-7677 or by email at [email protected].
