Carden Dodson Medical Associates brings together internists and infectious disease physicians to solve the diagnostic puzzles other clinics refer onward — from tropical and travel medicine to complex post-operative infections and long-term antimicrobial management.
Internal medicine originated in late-19th-century Germany to describe physicians who combined laboratory science with bedside clinical care. We still practice that way.
We specialize in comprehensive internal medicine and infectious disease care — serving patients with a strong focus on health, prevention, and personalized treatment.
Our infectious disease physicians in Palm Beach are committed to providing expert care tailored to your unique needs. Whether you are seeking a specialist for diagnosis, treatment, or ongoing management, our team supports your health at every step.
Internists complete seven years of medical and post-graduate training, pass a rigorous board certification examination, and are skilled in the comprehensive management of the whole patient. Some pursue additional fellowship training to sub-specialize in one of the nineteen internal medicine subspecialties — infectious disease among them.
An infectious disease specialist completes a two-to-three-year fellowship beyond internal medicine before sitting for board examination. The work demands an extensive understanding of bacterial, viral, mycobacterial, fungal, and parasitic infections — alongside antimicrobial agents, antibiotic resistance, vaccines, and immunobiologic agents.
Indicative pricing for self-pay patients. Most insurance accepted — final cost confirmed at booking.
The best medical care is delivered when it is centered around the patient's individual needs, goals, and preferences.
Infectious disease physicians are frequently the most consulted service in a hospital — serving as a resource for infection control and epidemiology. We bring that same consultative depth to every outpatient who walks through our doors on Flagler Drive.
When your primary physician encounters a diagnostic puzzle, we are the team they call. Complex infections. Antibiotic resistance. Post-operative complications. Tropical illness. We live in that space.
Same-week appointments available. Hospital consults handled through physician referral.
A member of our scheduling team will respond within one business day. For urgent matters, please call.
Our front desk takes calls Monday through Friday, 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM. Leave a message after hours and we will return your call the next business morning.
