Rheumatology

About the Speciality
The Rheumatology & Clinical Immunology team at our diagnoses and treats disorders that arise when the immune system mistakenly attacks the body. These conditions can affect joints, muscles, skin and internal organs. Our specialists diagnose and combine clinical assessment with imaging, blood tests for autoantibodies and, where needed, tissue sampling, so treatment is based on clear evidence. Procdures are multidisciplinary: rheumatologists and clinical immunologists work closely with physiotherapists, pain specialists, surgeons, obstetricians and paediatric teams to create personalised plans for each patient. Treatment options range from conventional and biologic disease-modifying drugs to joint aspiration and targeted injections, alongside physiotherapy, bone-health management and supervised daycare infusions when required.
