A Leading Name in Rheumatology Care

What separates Arthritis, Rheumatic & Bone Disease Associates from a multi-specialty group or a single-physician office is the depth of focused rheumatology services available under one roof. Your care, from diagnostic imaging to biologic infusion therapy, is overseen by rheumatology-trained physicians.

Arthritis, Rheumatic & Bone Disease Associates was the first independent rheumatology practice in New Jersey to offer in-office infusion services, completing its first infusion treatment in 2001. Today, our network of IDYLLIC Infusion Treatment Centers provides as many as 29,000 infusions to over 8,000 patients in one year. Because these centers are located within our offices rather than in a hospital, patients can access advanced biologic infusions at substantially lower cost, with an on-site medical professional supervising every infusion.

Our diagnostic ultrasound center provides real-time imaging of joints, soft tissue, and tendons without radiation. Amy Evangelisto, M.D., RhMSUS, who leads the center, recently served as President of the Ultrasound School of North American Rheumatologists and holds certifications in both diagnostic and therapeutic ultrasound. Each scan is interpreted by a physician trained specifically in rheumatology, not a general radiologist.

Our founder, Dr. Sheldon Solomon, holds the title of Master from the American College of Rheumatology, one of the highest honors that organization bestows. Dr. Mark Fisher, a founding partner and Fellow of the American College of Rheumatology, has contributed to clinical trials for new biologics and pioneering medications for rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, giving our practice direct involvement in shaping treatments that are now the standard of care.

What to Expect During Your First Visit

When you arrive at our Monroe Township office, we want you to feel comfortable and informed. Your first visit begins with a detailed review of your medical history, past treatments, and current symptoms. You’ll meet with a rheumatologist who will perform a focused physical examination and order diagnostic tests such as bloodwork or ultrasound imaging to better understand your condition.

We take time to explain each finding and walk through your personalized treatment plan, which is built around your specific diagnosis, lifestyle, and medical requirements. No two plans look the same because no two patients are the same. You’ll leave your appointment with clear next steps, and our staff is available to assist with scheduling, referrals, paperwork, and insurance requirements. We work with most major insurance plans and help patients identify copay assistance options. Our staff coordinates closely with your primary care physician, sharing records and findings to keep your care consistent across providers. 

The earlier an inflammatory autoimmune disease is identified, the better the long-term outcome may be. Arthritis, Rheumatic & Bone Disease Associates accepts patients with a primary care referral and patients seeking answers on their own. We also welcome second opinions and updated assessments for patients already managing a known condition. 

Call (856) 424-5005 to schedule your consultation with a board-certified rheumatologist in Monroe Township, NJ.

Questions About Your Rheumatology Care

What is rheumatology?
Rheumatology is the branch of medicine focused on diagnosing and treating diseases of the joints, bones, muscles, and immune system. Rheumatologists manage conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, osteoporosis, gout, and more than 100 other autoimmune and inflammatory disorders.
How is a rheumatologist different from a general practitioner?
After internal medicine residency, rheumatologists complete two to three additional years of fellowship training in diseases of the joints and immune system. Every physician at Arthritis, Rheumatic & Bone Disease Associates completed this training. A general practitioner does not have this specialized background.
What should I bring to my first appointment?
Bring any prior lab results, imaging studies, or records from your primary care physician or previous specialists. A list of current medications is also helpful. Your physician will review everything before the examination and use it to inform your diagnostic workup.
How does in-office infusion therapy work?
Biologic medications for conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis are sometimes administered intravenously rather than by pill or injection. Our IDYLLIC Infusion Treatment Centers provide this treatment inside our offices with a medical professional supervising every session, at substantially lower cost than hospital-based infusion.
Is in-office ultrasound the same as radiology imaging?
Diagnostic ultrasound in our offices provides real-time images of joints, tendons, and soft tissue without radiation. Unlike a radiology referral, every scan at Arthritis, Rheumatic & Bone Disease Associates is interpreted by a physician with specific rheumatology training, so findings are evaluated in the context of your condition, not in isolation.
Do you coordinate with my primary care physician?
Yes. We collaborate closely with referring and primary care physicians, sharing records and findings so your care stays consistent across providers. You won't need to repeat your history or serve as the messenger between offices.
