You’ve noticed that your joints are painful, and your doctor has told you that you have gout, a common form of arthritis. When you have a flare, you probably have one question: What can I do to reduce the pain?
We are currently out of COVID 19 Vaccine.
We will contact patients on our waiting list to schedule appointments

In the greater San Antonio, Texas, area, Rheumatology Solutions is the premier choice for the diagnosis and management of rheumatic and inflammatory conditions. Four board-certified rheumatologists lead the team and provide a wide range of modern and effective treatments and services. Three of them have served in the United States military, furthering their dedication to the men and women they treat for musculoskeletal conditions every day. The team takes the time to visit with each new and returning patient about their symptoms and concerns before building a personalized treatment plan.
Rheumatology Solutions offers many advanced diagnostic tests and services in the office, including ultrasound imaging, bloodwork, joint fluid tests, and more. After assessing a patient’s symptoms and signs, they use these tests as needed to diagnose an underlying condition or rule out possible causes.
At Rheumatology Solutions, patients can find effective treatments for pain, inflammation, and stiffness associated with many conditions. Symptoms like these worsen with time and can make it difficult for people to work, focus, and function in life. These skilled rheumatologists frequently diagnose and treat psoriatic arthritis, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, pseudogout, gout, systemic lupus, systemic sclerosis, vasculitis, and other musculoskeletal conditions.
Each treatment plan is tailored to the patient’s specific needs and requirements. The team uses creative strategies like nutritional plans, IV infusion therapy, musculoskeletal injections like corticosteroids, viscosupplementation, and amniotic fluid, physical therapy, and more to ease inflammation and promote better mobility and comfort. If you need prescriptions, the in-office pharmacy can fill many common prescription medications during your appointments to save you a stop at a second location.
