Rheumatology

If you have arthritis, or muscle or joint pain that is causing pain and mobility issues, the rheumatologist team at Memorial Hospital can provide specialized treatment for more than 100 diseases and conditions.

Rheumatologists diagnose and treat:

• Back pain
• Arthritis (in all its various forms)
• Certain autoimmune diseases
• Musculoskeletal disorders
• Osteoporosis
• Gout
• Lupus
• Polymyositis
• Sarcoidosis
• Scleroderma
• Sjogren’s syndrome
• Tendonitis

It’s hard to diagnose many conditions, but our team is specially trained to do the detective work necessary to get to the root cause of your pain or swelling. It’s important that you seek treatment when symptoms first occur – because some are progressive diseases which respond best to treatment in the early stages.

Our rheumatologists will collaborate with your primary physician, and with nurses, therapists, psychologists, and social workers in a team approach to help you manage your conditions. Don’t let pain and discomfort reduce your quality of life. Seek our help for diagnosis and treatment.
