Rheumatologists treat a variety of complex inflammatory conditions involving the joints, connective tissues, autoimmune system and blood vessels, including arthritis, osteoporosis, lupus, back pain and fibromyalgia. Many of these conditions are challenging to diagnose, and are of a degenerative nature, potentially resulting in lifelong disability and discomfort if not detected and treated early by a medical professional with specialty training in rheumatologic disorders.
Watson Clinic’s team of board-certified rheumatologists all have specialized training in the fields of
internal medicine and rheumatology.
