Adult Infectious Disease

3132 Matlock Road, Arlington, TX

Dr. Elleni Woldesenbet sees patients in Arlington, TX. Her medical specialty is adult infectious disease.

"This doctor is awful. I went in for a persistent urethritis issue. I had positive tests for an antibiotic resistant STI, and my primary care physician told me to see an infectious disease specialist. I got there 30 minutes early, and I did not see the doctor until an hour after my appt time. During our meeting, she didn't listen, talked to me like I was stupid, and then said she would get back to me on Tuesday the following week with some ideas of treatment. Then it wasn't Tuesday, it was next week. Well, that week came and went, and she still has not returned my calls for any updates on possible treatment plans or tests to do. She told me I should go to a urologist, which is where I had been before, but I was told to see a specialist to get treatment for an infectious STD that hasn’t responded to antibiotics. The nurse claims the delay is getting the testing materials ordered, and “the doctor is making some calls for you”. This doctor is absolutely worthless, and I cannot believe she charged my insurance $250 for doing absolutely nothing. She couldn’t even get a urine test scheduled in a timely manner just for a basic check. Do not use this person for any medical needs."

What is Infectious Disease?

Infectious disease is a specialty that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of infections, including bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasitic infections. Infectious disease specialists are trained in the studies of immunology, or how the body fights off infections, as well as epidemiology, or how diseases spread.

Some infectious disease doctors further specialize within the field of infectious disease. For instance, pediatric infectious disease specialists treat children and teens with serious infections. Others focus specifically on patients who have HIV or AIDS, as these conditions commonly cause patients to contract unusual and severe infections.

Most common infections can be treated by a general physician without problems. A referral to an infectious disease specialist might be made in cases such as:

An infection that is difficult to diagnose
An extremely high fever
An infection that is not responding to treatment
A patient traveling to a foreign country where the risk for infection is high
A patient with a chronic illness or infection that requires frequent treatment, such as HIV

Infectious disease specialists often use lab work to diagnose infections. They may culture a wound or look for the presence of antibodies in the blood. Treatment may include vaccinations, antifungals, or antibiotics. Infectious disease specialists are skilled at prescribing appropriate antibiotics for specific infections and knowing when the benefits outweigh the risks of side effects for using them.
