Rheumatology
The medical professionals at our New York rheumatology clinic have extensive training and experience in the diagnosis and treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases that affect the body’s musculoskeletal system—joints, ligaments, muscles, and tendons. These rheumatic conditions can also affect the body’s nerves, skin, blood vessels, and internal organs—making it a challenge for patients to cope and function through the demands of everyday life.
There are over 100 types of rheumatic and autoimmune diseases which are often characterized by inflamed connective tissue and red swollen joints. They can be serious and very difficult to diagnose and treat. The team at UHS is also specialized in the diagnosis and treatment of arthritis which affects over 50 million people in the United States.
The goal of our team at our New York based rheumatology clinic is to work closely with you to detect these conditions early on, educate you on your condition, and devise a treatment plan that enables a new lifestyle to live well, despite your diagnosis.
