I Need A Rheumatologist, Preferably In Arizona
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question đź’­

I'm needing a rheumatologist now that I have another auto-immune disease. There are no specialist where I live. The Mayo Clinic in Phoenix does not accept Medicare(!). They told me to call the Mayo Clinic in Rochester "because it's a bigger facility"?? I've had little luck searching the reviews of rheumatologists in Arizona.

Dr. Sheetal K. Chhaya, DO 2525 E Roosevelt St, Phoenix, AZ 85008, USA, I have not seen her yet but was referred by someone in the fibromyalgia group here. She likes her. She had good ratings online too.

@A MyFibroTeam Member I've also been diagnosed with polymyalgia rheumatica. They deal with both. I'm sorry things haven't changed much since I was first diagnosed with FM over 30 years ago. Good luck in your search. Gentle {{hugs}}

I have found the majority of Rheumatologist’s don’t like dealing with Fibro patients. They are good for checking labs but other than that, I have seen three that don’t take me seriously. I am now searching for #4 in the Dallas/Ft Worth area.
Good luck 🍀
