Rheumatology is a branch of medicine that specializes in diagnosing, treating, and managing conditions related to the body's connective tissues, including arthritis and autoimmune diseases. Rheumatologists are medical doctors who specialize in diagnosing and treating these conditions. They use a variety of treatments, including medications, physical therapy, and lifestyle changes.
A rheumatologist is a medical doctor who specializes in diagnosing and treating diseases of the musculoskeletal system, which includes joints, muscles, bones, and tendons. The primary roles of a rheumatologist are to diagnose, treat, and manage diseases of the musculoskeletal system, such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, lupus, gout, and tendinitis. A rheumatologist may also diagnose and treat autoimmune diseases, such as psoriatic arthritis, Sjögren's syndrome, and vasculitis.
Rheumatologists provide comprehensive care to patients with musculoskeletal disorders, focusing on prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. They evaluate and treat patients through physical exams, laboratory tests, imaging, and other diagnostic procedures, as well as providing patients with education and counseling on lifestyle and self-care.
In order to become a rheumatologist, one must complete a four-year medical degree program, followed by a three-year residency program in internal medicine. After completing the residency, a one-year fellowship in rheumatology is required to specialize in the field. All prospective rheumatologists must also be certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine and must be licensed to practice medicine in their state.
Rheumatologists are medical doctors who specialize in diagnosing and treating diseases that affect the joints, muscles and bones. As of 2020, there are approximately 8,600 practicing rheumatologists in the United States.
The average age of a US rheumatologist is 50, and the majority of them (78%) are female. The average number of years since they completed their medical residency is 18. This specialty is concentrated in certain states; California, New York and Texas have the most rheumatologists.
In terms of compensation, rheumatologists in the United States earn on average $267,000 annually. The national median salary for this specialty is $250,000.
Rheumatologists are part of a larger group of physicians known as rheumatology specialists, which includes rheumatologists, orthopedists and physical therapists. The American College of Rheumatology (ACR) is the leading professional organization for rheumatologists and other related specialists. The ACR has approximately 9,000 members and regularly publishes research, guidelines and other resources related to rheumatology.
The field of rheumatology is growing in the US and the number of practicing rheumatologists is expected to increase over the next few years.
