Pediatric Rheumatology

Who We Are:

The Pediatric Rheumatology team of Baystate Children's Hospital cares for children and adolescents with arthritis and other inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Our team can provide your child with state-of-the-art diagnosis, treatment and clinical management.

 

What We Treat:

Children are often referred to a Pediatric Rheumatologist by their doctor because they have had:

  • persistent or frequent fevers
  • unusual rashes
  • joint pain
  • swelling, or stiffness
  • muscle weakness
  • and other musculoskeletal problems.

 

We are also asked to see patients for:

  • evaluation and management of Lyme arthritis
  • chronic unexplained musculoskeletal pain
  • abnormal laboratory tests such as positive antinuclear antibodies,
  • and an array of complex medical conditions.

 

Our Team:

  • Dr. Peter Blier
