- We are consultants and make recommendations to the patient and PCPs
- When patients are symptomatic, the PCP should order a UA and culture and treat accordingly
- If the PCP is uncomfortable treating UTIs, they can either send us the results or a message and we will be more than happy to guide them with the best antibiotic choices
- Sometimes, we also have to consult with urology and infectious diseases (ID)
- Interstitial cystitis
- Anal incontinence
