Dr. Petroll is an infectious disease specialist with a focus on the care of HIV-positive patients. His research interests include how patients' risk behaviors for HIV transmission are addressed in clinical settings, how patient-physician interactions affect the disclosure and discussion of HIV risk behaviors, and how patient and physician characteristics influence such discussions. He is interested in studying the effectiveness of interventions aimed at improving HIV risk behavior discussions between health care providers and both HIV-negative and HIV-positive
patients, assessing HIV testing behaviors within high-risk populations, and intervening to
increase serostatus testing.
