Expert Rheumatology Care in Louisiana for Managing Arthritis, Osteoporosis, & More
Rheumatology is a subspecialty of internal medicine and pediatrics, involved with the diagnosis and therapy of problems arising in the joints and soft tissues, as well as autoimmune diseases, vasculitis, and heritable connective tissue disorders.
Our rheumatologists diagnose and focus on non-surgical treatment of arthritis and related rheumatic diseases, such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, fibromyalgia and other disorders of the joints and connective tissues of the body. All of our rheumatologists at The Baton Rouge Clinic are board certified.
Some of our rheumatologists, with a direct referral from one of our pediatricians, can also help diagnose and treat children with rheumatic diseases.
