Rheumatology encompasses the autoimmune diseases, arthritis, and musculoskeletal conditions. While rheumatologists are generally thought to be specialists dedicated to rheumatoid arthritis, lupus and scleroderma, we also care for patients with a wide array of systemic, inflammatory, autoimmune diseases as well as very common musculoskeletal disorders (e.g., osteoarthritis and osteoporosis) and sports-related injuries.
