“Rheumatologic disorders can be quite challenging to diagnose and require a sound foundation in internal medicine, critical thinking and attention to detail. As a rheumatologist, I approach each patient individually and develop a treatment plan that is evidence-based and best tailored to my patient. I firmly believe in and encourage open discussions with my patients as part of my team approach to patient care. Rheumatological conditions are often chronic. I look forward to forging long and meaningful relationships with my patients and delivering the best patient centered care.” Teresa Sosenko, MD
