Harley street Rheumatology Clinics

Rheumatology clinics specialise in the diagnosis, treatment and research of rheumatic disorders and disease. This field is classed as a sub-speciality of both Paediatrics and Internal Medicine and is concerned with disorders of the joints, connective and soft tissues, alongside autoimmune diseases which are the focus of much research carried out by rheumatology clinics.

After 6 years of undergraduate medical training these experts received focused training in the field of Rheumatology and are members of the Royal College of Physicians where they specialised in disorders affecting the joints of the body.

Rheumatism is a term used by rheumatology clinics to cover a plethora of painful common conditions including rheumatoid arthritis, gout, lupus, fibromyalgia, osteoporosis and back pain. The tissues and joints of the body are complex, working systems that only become apparent when there is a problem within them.

Those who visit a rheumatology clinic are suffering from a painful disorder affecting the joints, muscles and tissues of the body.
