Our Specialized Services
At Bluegrass ID Associates, we offer a wide range of services to diagnose, treat, and manage various infectious diseases. Our team of experts provides individualized care to ensure that you receive the best possible treatment, whether you're dealing with a common infection or a complex case.
Bacterial Infections
We specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of bacterial infections affecting different parts of the body. These include:
- Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs): Recurrent or severe UTIs that don’t respond to standard treatments.
- Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs): Including gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and more.
- Osteomyelitis: Bone infections that can result from injury, surgery, or spreading infections.

Viral Infections
We treat both acute and chronic viral infections, using the latest evidence-based approaches:
- COVID-19: Comprehensive management, including post-infection complications (long COVID).
- Hepatitis (A, B, C): Expert care for chronic hepatitis, helping to manage liver health and prevent complications.
- HIV/AIDS: Ongoing management of HIV, including antiretroviral therapy and monitoring to ensure optimal health.

Fungal Infections
Fungal infections can often be complex and difficult to treat. Our services cover:
- Histoplasmosis: A lung infection caused by inhaling fungal spores, often from the environment.

- Coccidioidomycosis (Valley Fever): A fungal disease that can cause flu-like symptoms, which may become severe if untreated.
Antibiotic-Resistant Infections
Antibiotic resistance is an increasing global concern. Our team is trained to manage infections that don’t respond to standard treatments, including:
- MRSA (Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus): Infections that are resistant to common antibiotics, requiring specialized care.
- VRE (Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci): Another type of resistant bacteria that often affects the bloodstream, urinary tract, or surgical sites.
- Other Drug-Resistant Infections: We work with the latest antibiotics and alternative therapies to combat resistant strains.
