HIV Knowledgible Primary Care Doctor?

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
Colorado Springs, CO

Does anyone know a primary care doctor in Colorado Springs (or nearby) that knows a lot about HIV? I have had HIV for over thirty years and now I find out that, even though it was controlled, that I have a lot of co-existing conditions that come from it. I am now a VERY complex patient and I can't find a doctor who can put all the puzzle pieces together. 😬

It's important for both HIV care practitioners and general internal medicine doctors to be aware of the association between HIV and high blood pressure to better serve their patients.

For more detailed information, you can refer to the article titled "The Link Between HIV and High Blood Pressure" on myHIVteam.
