HIV Roundtable: Approaches to Care


We are continuing our roundtable series where we delve into important clinical infectious disease topics with a comprehensive discussion with clinicians in the field. This is the first episode of our 3-part series focusing on HIV. Our roundtables are a collaborative project from Contemporary Pediatrics, Contagion, and Contemporary OB/GYN.

This series discusses several aspects of HIV care including clinical management, therapies, vaccines, and multidrug resistance.

In this first episode, the panel offers their approaches to care in terms of medications and management when patients are first diagnosed and a discussion around long-acting injectables for HIV management.

Our panel of clinicians includes:

  • MJ Kasten, MD, associate professor of Medicine, consultant, Division of Public Health, Infectious Diseases, and Occupational Medicine, Department of Internal Medicine, Mayo Clinic
  • Natasha Hoyte, MPH, CPNP-PC, New York-Presbyterian School Based Health Centers
