RA vs PsA. Are they actually the same thing?

A note of thanks to our patients

We want to thank you for your patience and understanding during our transition to a new system. Since going live on 12/9, the migration has been more challenging than expected and may have caused scheduling issues or other inconveniences for some patients.

While the system transition has had its challenges, the care you receive has not changed. Our team continues to provide the same high-quality, attentive care you expect from us, even while working through these adjustments.

Our EHR partner is actively addressing the issues, and we are confident this will lead to a more streamlined experience that supports both our patients and our care team.

Thank you for your continued trust and patience. We truly appreciate it.
