Host: Darryl S. Chutka. M.D.; [@chutkaMD] Guest: Vanessa L. Kronzer, M.D. Rheumatologic problems are some of the most common health conditions we see as primary care professionals. In many cases, taking months and sometimes years to properly diagnose, rheumatologic conditions can become frustrating for both the provider and the patient. There are a variety of new tests available to help us establish a diagnosis, as well as multiple new and effective treatment options. This episode is part of a seven-episode mini-series on Mayo Clinic Talks dedicated to rheumatologic health problems to aid in the recognition, diagnosis, and treatment for your patients. Please find these episodes where you listen to podcasts or on ce.mayo.edu. Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic inflammatory, autoimmune disorder. While it typically results in a symmetric and erosive arthritis, many patients have an atypical presentation and up to 40% of those with rheumatoid arthritis have extra-articular manifestations. It tends to be progressive over years and can be quite debilitating. Fortunately, there are some new treatments available which have given our patients hope of a remission from this disease. This podcast will explore rheumatoid arthritis and we’ll discuss its clinical manifestations, how to establish a diagnosis and its management. Our guest is Vanessa L. Kronzer, M.D., from the Division of Rheumatology at the Mayo Clinic.  Connect with the Mayo Clinic’s School of Continuous Professional Development online at https://ce.mayo.edu/ or on Twitter @MayoMedEd. Learn more about our Rheumatology Edition here: https://ce.mayo.edu/content/mayo-clinic-talks-rheumatology-edition
