Rheumatology Fellowship Programs

A Rheumatology Fellowship Program is specialized medical training for doctors who want to become experts in diagnosing and managing autoimmune and inflammatory diseases affecting the joints, muscles, and bones—such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and gout. After completing general internal medicine training, these doctors undergo additional years of focused education, clinical experience, and research in rheumatology. The program prepares them to provide advanced care, develop new treatments, and improve outcomes for patients with complex musculoskeletal conditions. It’s a rigorous, interdisciplinary training designed to deepen their expertise and enhance patient care in this specialized field.
