Services
Immunotherapy
Since some autoimmune diseases require IV administration of medications, Florida Arthritis Center has a professionally staffed infusion department. The nursing staff attending to patients receiving those treatments go through training with clinical liaisons from manufacturers of each medication.
Infusion therapy involves administration of the medication prescribed when patient’s condition is so severe that cannot be treated effectively by oral medication. Example of infusion medications include Orencia, Simponi Aria, Remicade, Actemra, Benlysta, Saphnelo and Rituxan.
Our infusion suite has been designed with patient comfort in mind, and our staff at Florida Arthritis Center has been providing this service for over 10 years.

We have an in- house CLIA certified laboratory. Comprehensive rheumatologic testing is offered to help diagnose and treat a wide spectrum of rheumatologic conditions.

Clinical Trials
Our practice maintains an active clinical study center through Omega Research to offer additional options to patients who have tried various drugs without benefit, or otherwise may not have access to treatment. Study participants have access to medications and labs at no charge and, in some cases, may be compensated for their time and travel. Please contact the research department for further information regarding our current studies.
