rheumatoid arthritis

Hi I am suffering from rheumatoid arthritis from 13 years. I must say that he is the best rhematologist yet as monitoring steroids dosage and prescribed new disease modifying drugs which are effective and pain killers not required now. After long time I got the right doctor. Previously I was seeing only same drugs repeated from other doctors and no balance of dose and side effects. Personally clears the doubts and very helping and approachable. Great experience. Thank you Doctor.

We are thankful for the doctor and the team
