Clinical Services

The Department is involved in providing clinical microbiology services at the Prince of Wales Hospital and other hospitals of the New Territories East Cluster. Services include clinical consultations on diagnosis, treatment and patient management in infectious diseases; hospital infection control and antibiotic stewardship programme; as well as laboratory diagnostic services on microbial diseases and detection of antibiotic resistance.

We also provide a broad range of diagnostic services to other members of the community through the University Pathology Services (UPS).

We have set up the Hong Kong FMT Stool Bank for production of stool filtrate for FMT services. Our stool bank has received the ISO 9001 certification in April 2024.
