My practice is NEARLY full now.
Thanks for your support and trust. We have served more than 50000 patient-visits in 10 years.
Our primary focus is inflammatory conditions such as RA, PsA, and SpA. Unfortunately we do not have the capacity to follow chronic pain and non-inflammatory conditions . We usually do not prescribe opioids or chronic pain medications.
We provide medical care to wide variety of rheumatological conditions, including Rheumatoid Arthritis, Psoriatic Arthritis, Ankylosing Spondylitis, Connective Tissue Diseases , GCA, PMR….
Due to shortage of rheumatologists across the region, and my practice becoming full ,
I only focus on see inflammatory rheumatological conditions who require immunosuppressive therapies and individuals who require steroid injections.
1-If you suspect inflammatory arthritis please make sure the patient has had at least these tests :
ESR,CRP, RF, anti CCP, Ferritin, Urate levels ( and Lyme serology if the knee joints are swollen).
2- If the patient’s ANA is positive , please do these tests before referring the patient : ENA, DsDNA, C3, C4, Serum Ig, CK , ESR, CRP, and Urine
3- If there is a suspicion of inflammatory back pain , the patient requires an :
MRI of Pelvis and Spine “MSK Protocol” to assess for inflammatory Spondyloarthropathy,
to expedite the consultation process.
Of course I am always available on the other side of the phone to discuss your urgent cases such as GCA.
We also provide MSK Sonography, which helps the diagnosis of inflammation affecting joint and tendons.
