Comprehensive treatment for rheumatology patients

Rheumatology Care at National Jewish Health

When you have muscle or joint pain that does not improve, you may need the help of a rheumatologist. Rheumatic diseases (also called autoimmune diseases) include connective tissue disorders like rheumatoid arthritis and lupus, as well as mixed connective tissue disease.

At National Jewish Health in Denver, Colorado, we specialize in comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of patients with autoimmune diseases. Our team of doctors – including leaders in rheumatology, immunology and allergy – works together to diagnose and treat each patient. As the leading respiratory hospital in the nation, our Autoimmune Lung Center focuses on patients with connective tissue disorders to manage lung-related problems. Our doctors are researchers too, so you have access to the latest rheumatologic clinical trials and most effective treatments.
