Sponsored: University Hospitals Portage Medical Center expands infectious disease care

- Submitted ,

Services are expanding at University Hospitals Portage Medical Center Infectious Disease Clinic where experts are available to meet patient needs close to home.

This cold and flu season providers are focused on vaccinations, one of the most important decisions patients can make to help stay healthy this winter.

“I am reminding patients now is the time to schedule flu, COVID, RSV and pneumonia vaccinations,” said Varun Sodhi, MD. “If patients have questions about when to visit for care or if these vaccinations are recommended for their age group, I’m happy to help put them at ease. Patients concerned about why they can’t seem to shake an illness, should make an appointment, especially the immunocompromised patients. My goal is to make it easy for patients to get in, out, and on the path towards better health.”

The UH Infectious Disease Clinic is conveniently located on the campus of UH Portage Medical Center allowing patients expedient access to follow up care.
