Middlesex Health Multispecialty Group – Rheumatology works to assess the needs of each patient and create a treatment plan that offers that patient an opportunity to participate in life – physically, emotionally, and socially. The board-certified physicians and rheumatology health care specialists will diagnose and treat inflammatory diseases and conditions of the joints, muscles, and soft tissues. Since many rheumatoid disorders are chronic and have far-ranging effects on the ability to participate in daily activities, the team of healthcare professionals can best help patients manage these conditions.

Rheumatology is a branch of medicine devoted to the diagnosis and therapy of rheumatic diseases. Physicians who have undergone formal training in rheumatology are called rheumatologists.
