Prisma Health Infectious Diseases–Greenville

At Prisma Health Infectious Diseases, we treat disorders caused by organisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi or parasites. Many organisms live in and on our bodies and are normally harmless or even helpful, but under certain conditions some may cause disease. Some infectious diseases can be passed from person to person. Some are transmitted by bites from insects or animals. And others are acquired by ingesting contaminated food or water or being exposed to organisms in the environment. Frequent and thorough hand-washing helps protect you from most infectious diseases.
