Special Interests

Research Interests

My research has focused on clinical and epidemiological studies of tuberculosis and nontuberculous mycobacterial infections. In particular, I am interested in the molecular epidemiology of these infections and how we can better elucidate issues relevant to the transmission and pathogenesis of these important diseases. I am also interested in studying new diagnostic tests and new drugs and treatment regimens. In addition to my research I am very committed to medical education and training individuals to do clinical and epidemiologic research.

National Jewish Health Patient– March, 2018
Can't imagine a more knowledgeable, kind, and friendly doctor. Never feel he rushes me.

National Jewish Health Patient– February, 2018
There is a reason I fly half way across the US and it is Dr. Daley. I am a skeptic and it is unbelievably reassuring to be with a Dr. that I trust, not only in having my best interests, but having the knowledge, the experiences and the practicality to consider thoughtfully the right moves in my course of treatment. He gives me peace of mind.

National Jewish Health Patient– February, 2018
Dr. Daley is the greatest doctor I have ever had!

National Jewish Health Patient– February, 2018
Excellent physician.

National Jewish Health Patient– January, 2018
*Dr. Daley is "exceptional" in all areas - both myself & husband very impressed with him. Kind, very compassionate, doesn't act hurried, explains everything in laymen's terms, very thorough.

National Jewish Health Patient– January, 2018
I've never had a bad experience in this dept.!!!

National Jewish Health Patient– January, 2018
Excellent!

National Jewish Health Patient– January, 2018
Good.

National Jewish Health Patient– January, 2018
Dr. Daley is a doctor's doctor. I am a physician. I have always said that one day, if I needed a doctor to take care of me, I would hope that my doctor would provide the same quality of care that I strive to provide for my patients. I have always left my visits with Dr. Daley knowing that he does, indeed, take care of me just like I take care of my patients.

National Jewish Health Patient– December, 2017
Dr Daley is by far the best. He made me feel confident that I will be able to live with my diagnosis and be in control on my health options.
