Arthritis & Rheumatology Overview
Living with chronic pain is very challenging, and many patients who have arthritis or other inflammatory conditions also struggle mentally and emotionally at the loss of beloved activities or constant pain. If you are experiencing pain and inflammation, our arthritis & rheumatology experts offer prompt and experienced care, helping identify a diagnosis and treatment plan that matches your lifestyle and goals.
With over 450 physicians and 40 services, we will also coordinate your care with your primary care physician, diagnostics, imaging and any other specialists you may need to see, like an orthopedic surgeon or an endocrinologist. We work to build long-term relationships with our patients to help provide a lifetime of support for individuals dealing with these chronic conditions.
Infusion / Injection Therapy
For some patients, lifestyle changes and oral medication are either ineffective or just not possible to keep up with. In those cases, in-office injections or infusion therapy may be the best treatment option.
Medication Management
Many chronic inflammatory or autoimmune conditions respond well to medication, so long as that medication is taken consistently. Certain medications may have side effects that need to be monitored or managed, so our providers will work closely with you to identify the best medication that helps treat your condition and improves your quality of life.
Preventative Care
While many of the conditions we treat are not curable, certain lifestyle changes can prevent worsening of the condition or improve pain and other symptoms. We help counsel patients on lifestyle changes that will help manage their condition, including diet or nutritional changes, exercise regimens, smoking cessation and other interventions.
