Department Overview

The Division of Arthritis & Rheumatic Diseases provides care for patients with inflammatory diseases that include rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthritis, vasculitis, scleroderma, myositis, and polymyalgia rheumatica.  We also see patients with diseases such as osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia.  Rheumatologists have special training and expertise in the use of medications that suppress the immune system which is a major approach in the treatment of these immunologically mediated diseases.

  • Adult rheumatology inpatient consult service for 2-3 months per year. Includes OHSU-only consult weeks (Monday-Fridays) and combined OHSU and VA Portland Health Care System (VAPORHCS) weekend coverage.
