Services

Sawtooth Epidemiology & Infectious Diseases is pleased to bring comprehensive adult infectious disease care to the Treasure Valley. We are an independent medical practice and we serve patients at both St. Lukes Health System in Boise, Meridian and Nampa, as well as, Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Centers in Boise and Nampa.

Diagnosis Of Acute & Complex Infections

Our providers are highly trained and specialize in identifying appropriate treatment regimens for complicated infections of the skin, sinuses, brain, heart, lungs, urinary tract, bowel, pelvic organs, bones, joints, bloodstream and other body tissues caused by bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites.

Hospital Consultation

Our board-certified infectious disease physicians make bedside rounds at five hospital locations around the Treasure Valley – St. Lukes Boise, Meridian and Nampa Medical Centers, as well as, Saint Alphonsus Boise and Nampa Medical Centers.

Chronic Infectious Disease Management

Ongoing supervision of chronic conditions such as Hepatitis B & C, can be managed through our outpatient clinic. Routine visits and prescription therapy are managed by the Sawtooth Care Team.

Sawtooth does not manage long-term covid or post-covid syndrome.

Antibiotic Stewardship

We strive to protect the usage of antimicrobial medications by promoting optimal selection, dose, and duration of therapy through evidence-based prescribing, education, and oversight across multiple healthcare settings to include inpatient and long-term acute care facilities and our outpatient practice. 

Infusion therapy

We provide comprehensive antibiotic infusion therapy in our outpatient clinic. The Sawtooth Care Team includes a physician, an infusion nurse practitioner, and a medical assistant that work collaboratively to provide a comprehensive initial assessment and customized treatment plan tailored to the individual patient’s need. We monitor labwork to assess treatment efficacy, tolerability and reduce risk of side effects.

Infection Prevention Control

Utilizing their expertise in infectious disease and epidemiology, our providers chair the Infection Prevention Control committees at both St. Lukes Health System and St. Alphonsus Regional Medical Centers. Leading initiatives to prevent the spread of infectious diseases among patients and employees within the healthcare setting is vital and Sawtooth physicians are proud to be leading that effort.

Phlebotomy

Venipuncture or peripheral IV blooddraws can be conveniently drawn at our clinic. The Sawtooth Care Team closely monitors the labwork to effectively manage antibiotic administration and reduce risk of medication toxicity.
