Designated an Autoimmunity Center of Excellence by the National Institutes of Health, Duke is a leader in the evaluation and treatment of patients suffering from a broad spectrum of rheumatologic and immunologic disorders, including:

• Rheumatoid arthritis
• Ankylosing spondylitis
• Systemic lupus erythematosus
• Scleroderma
• Sjögren’s syndrome
• Vasculitis
• Regional musculoskeletal disorders
• Osteoarthritis
• Osteoporosis

Duke’s highly skilled specialists see some 15,000 patients annually, and our research community is engaged in a number of ongoing studies designed to better understand and treat rheumatic and autoimmune conditions.

Because inflammatory and immune disorders can affect many systems in the body, our clinicians also partner with specialists throughout Duke Medicine to provide each patient with appropriate, comprehensive care.
