The Department of Rheumatology at VSM Hospital specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal and autoimmune disorders affecting joints, bones, muscles, and connective tissues. Our expert team is dedicated to providing early, accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment to improve long-term health and quality of life.

We manage a wide range of conditions including Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), osteoporosis, Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), gout, soft tissue rheumatism such as tennis elbow, nerve entrapment syndromes like sciatica, and chronic back pain. Our approach combines clinical expertise with compassionate care to help patients maintain mobility and independence.

Early intervention is a key focus of our department, especially for inflammatory arthritis. Timely diagnosis and treatment are proven to reduce disease progression, prevent disability, and preserve employment and daily function. To support this, we aim to assess suspected inflammatory arthritis cases within two weeks of referral.
