Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Rheumatologist?

A Board Certified rheumatologist is a specialized internal medicine physician who undergoes additional training focused on the diagnosis, management, and treatment of musculoskeletal conditions and systemic autoimmune diseases, collectively known as rheumatic diseases. These diseases affect joints, muscles, bones, and sometimes internal organs, causing symptoms such as pain, inflammation, stiffness, and deformity.

Board Certified rheumatologists possess expertise in identifying and treating a wide range of conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, lupus, gout, fibromyalgia, and vasculitis. They utilize advanced diagnostic techniques, such as imaging studies and laboratory tests, to accurately diagnose these complex conditions. Treatment plans developed by Board Certified rheumatologists often include a combination of medications, lifestyle modifications, physical therapy, and patient education to manage symptoms effectively and improve quality of life.

At Arthritis and Rheumatology of Georgia (ARG), our team of Board Certified Rheumatologists is dedicated to providing personalized, evidence-based care to help patients achieve optimal health and well-being.
