The Polyclinic rheumatology department cares for patients with arthritis and other diseases of the joints, muscles and bones. These range from back, neck and hand pain to autoimmune diseases like lupus, in which the body attacks healthy tissue.

All of our rheumatologists (doctors who specialize in these conditions) have advanced training and are board certified. They diagnose and care for a wide range of diseases and disorders, including:

  • Gout and pseudogout (types of arthritis that cause crystals to build up in the joints)
  • Lupus (an autoimmune disease that affects many organs in the body)
  • Myositis (inflammation of the muscles)
  • Polymyalgia rheumatica and temporal arteritis (disorders that causes pain and stiffness)
  • Rheumatoid arthritis (a disorder that affects the lining of the joints)
  • Scleroderma (hardening of the skin and connective tissues)
  • Seronegative spondyloarthritis (diseases that affect the spine and other joints)
  • Sjögren’s syndrome (a disorder that causes parts of the body to dry out)
  • Vasculitis (inflammation of the blood vessels)

Please note that we need a referral from your primary care doctor or another specialist to schedule an appointment.
