Are you in need of a Rheumatologist?
Rheumatologists are doctors who diagnose and treat conditions related to the muscles, bones, joints, ligaments, and tendons. Many people seek out Rheumatologists when they have pain in the joints, muscles, or bones that is severe and persists for more than a few days. These doctors are experts in early detection of diseases so that they can treat problems in the earlier stages and have better long term results. Some of the common conditions patients come to Rheumatologists with include osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, musculoskeletal pain disorders, osteoporosis and gout. Rheumatologists often work closely with their patients and other physicians to provide guidance on the best treatment plans and procedures.
