Our Mission

The mission of The Healing Rheum is to treat each person as a whole; to educate and empower each patient to optimize their pillars of immune strength. While the basis of diagnosing and treating autoimmune disease at The Healing Rheum relies on the foundation of western medicine, Dr. Lafian believes in the incorporation of evidence-based complementary and alternative modalities whilst emphasizing lifestyle modifications to implement health and immune wellness.

More about Rheumatology

A Rheumatologist is a doctor who specializes in arthritis, bone related disorders, connective tissue diseases, systemic autoimmune and auto-inflammatory conditions. While some conditions in the field of Rheumatology are straightforward, many diagnoses require attention to detail and an ample amount of time to unravel. The training of a rheumatologist allows one to precisely investigate and piece together symptoms from various organ systems, as many autoimmune conditions affect different body parts.

“Excellent doctor and staff! Dr. Lafian cares about her patients all while providing the best possible care to determine a diagnosis and treatment plan accordingly”
