Why you should consider the Connected Rheumatology consult.
Rheumatologist care for a wide variety of conditions – from tendonitis & bursitis to RA, Lupus and Scleroderma…and everything in between! Many of our conditions are complex, poorly understood and diagnosis can be difficult. Therefore, it is critical to have a trusted Rheumatologist who can give your condition the time it deserves.
Caring for those with chronic autoimmune conditions takes time, attention and expertise. The fast paced traditional rheumatology clinics often fail to adequately address all the concerns of the autoimmune patient.
At Connected Rheumatology we believe it is all connected. We treat our patients like family and take the time necessary to explore all our patient’s concerns. This comprehensive approach allows each patient to walk away with a thorough and personalized plan to take back their health.
