The Essential Steps to Exceptional Patient Care:  Every step we take in patient care is designed to achieve the overall goal of relief and rehabilitation.  Our exclusive methods encompass the most progressive therapies and techniques available in the science of rheumatology today.

Knowledge is the keystone of our practice.  More than 20 years experience and extensive international studies and professional fellowships.  Diagnosis of your individual problems is conducted in depth and in conjunction with your primary health care practitioner.  Treatment includes groundbreaking medical advances as well as combinations of traditional and proven techniques tailored to the individual.  Relief can be realized in almost all situations with medications, therapies, and coping strategies.  Research is a major point of differentiation at our unique practice with a division devoted entirely to discovering new approaches and advancements.  Innovation means we strive to develop new vistas in finding solutions for one of the oldest diseases known to humankind.  Management of your case is a collaboration between patient, doctor, and staff that continues long after you leave our office.

Your Visits and Caregivers

You will interrelate with several dedicated caregivers during your visits to Advanced Arthritis Care & Research.  The Nursing Staff will check your medications, benchmark your vital signs, prepare for the doctor's consultation, and assist the doctor in providing treatments.  The Office Staff assists new and existing patients in making appointments, arranging for testing, billing, insurance and other matters.  The Research Staff is constantly studying, researching, testing, investigating, etc., so they are seldom seen "out front", but they are a vital part of our practice and your health care.  This internal staff is augmented by scores of other professionals and specialists in labs conveniently  located nearby, since we are located in the heart of the Scottsdale Medical Complex off of Shea Boulevard and the 101.
