Welcome to the Division of Rheumatology at the University of Utah.

Our division has a long-standing tradition of excellence in patient care, education, research, and service. We are committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care for patients with arthritis, autoimmune diseases, and other rheumatic conditions. Through our specialized clinics, we care for individuals with both common and complex disorders, offering expertise across the full spectrum of rheumatologic disease.

Our faculty members are nationally recognized clinicians, educators, and researchers whose interests span rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, scleroderma, vasculitis, gout, crystal-induced arthropathies, and many other autoimmune and connective tissue diseases. Together, we work to advance knowledge, improve treatments, and enhance the lives of the patients and communities we serve.

Education is a cornerstone of our mission. We are dedicated to training the next generation of physicians, rheumatologists, and healthcare professionals through outstanding learning opportunities for medical students, residents, fellows, and advanced practice clinicians. By fostering curiosity, collaboration, and innovation, we prepare future leaders in rheumatology.

This is an exciting time in our field. Advances in immunology, genetics, epidemiology, and therapeutics continue to transform our understanding of rheumatic diseases and create new possibilities for prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. Our division remains at the forefront of these developments through active clinical research and a commitment to translating discoveries into better patient outcomes.

As Interim Division Chief, I am honored to lead a team of dedicated faculty, trainees, and staff who share a passion for excellence and a commitment to improving the health and well-being of those affected by rheumatic disease.
