JEVS Achievement through Counseling and Treatment (ACT) program has partnered with FIGHT to provide hepatitis C (HCV) and HIV screenings to patients at JEVS drug treatment clinics.
Thanks NBC10 Philadelphia for allowing us to come on and talk about World Hepatitis Day! This year, we are encouraging everyone to know their Hepatitis C status. If you don't know your status, meet our C A Difference team at the John Bell Health Center today.
Each summer, FIGHT works with Bridging the Gaps students representing health and social service disciplines, including medicine, dentistry, nursing, social work, public health and related fields.
Dr. Mounzer identified two major gaps in the care of patients with HIV/hepatitis C (HCV) co-infection, and the complexity of multidrug-resistant HIV treatment. He is involved with many clinical trials focusing on drug development and better understanding of HIV immunopathogenesis with the Wistar Institute. He is involved in teaching and mentoring fellows, residents and students.
This NOVEMBER Philadelphia FIGHT will be opening a new Pediatric and Adolescent Health Center dedicated to providing high quality, comprehensive, primary care to address the physical, emotional and sexual health needs of inner-city children and youth from birth through age 24.
