Rheumatology

Rheumatologists specialize in the diagnosis and management of autoimmune and musculoskeletal disorders affecting joints, muscles, and connective tissues. Common conditions treated include rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, gout, osteoarthritis, and vasculitis.

These specialists conduct detailed clinical assessments, laboratory tests, and imaging studies to identify systemic inflammatory diseases. Treatment plans often involve immunosuppressive therapies, biologic agents, and physical rehabilitation to control symptoms and prevent disease progression.

Rheumatologists collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to provide comprehensive care, aiming to reduce pain, improve function, and enhance the quality of life for patients with chronic rheumatic conditions.
