Dr. Gates will review your medical data, including X-rays and laboratory reports such as blood work and culture data. He may perform a physical exam to help determine the cause of the problem.

  • Tests: Dr. Gates often orders laboratory tests to examine samples of blood or other body fluids or cultures from wounds. A blood serum analysis can help him detect antibodies that indicate what type of infection you have. These advanced tests can further explain the results of earlier tests, helping to pinpoint the problem.
  • Treatments: Treatments consist of medicines—usually antibiotics—to help battle the infection and prevent it from returning. These medicines may be given to you orally (in the form of pills or liquids) or administered directly into your veins, via an IV tube. Prime Care and Pathology has IV antibiotic therapy available in our office, which decreases the likelihood that you will need to be hospitalized.
