MGH Women’s Place

The Infectious Disease practice at MGH has instituted a welcoming female focused practice that identifies and addresses specific, culturally sensitive and self-identified needs of HIV positive women. Our belief is by integrating comprehensive health care services into a female focused practice session, we will attract a greater number of HIV positive women to our practice. Once identified, they would have the opportunity to start HIV treatment earlier, thus reversing the likelihood of developing acute illness and AIDS.
