Welcome to the Pennsylvania Rheumatology Society
Picture
The Pennsylvania Rheumatology Society (PRS)  was established in 1987 to advance the knowledge of rheumatology and to foster the dissemination of this knowledge through educational endeavors and cooperation with other local and national societies of Rheumatology.

​The PRS has been working over the past thirty years to support the interests of rheumatologists and their patients in the state. In recent years,  we have actively supported the interests of rheumatology through participation in the Specialty Leadership Cabinet (SLC) of the PA Medical Society. Representatives of our organization also sit on the Carrier Advisory Committee (CAC) of Novitas, the PA Medicare contractor as well as strive to keep the medical directors of other major statewide insurers informed on rheumatic disease issues.
PRS Echos The Message That ACR Shared With Their Members:

​The American College of Rheumatology is deeply troubled by the recent events surrounding the death of George Floyd. This tragedy is the latest in a long history of senseless killings of people of color. We recognize that racial inequality is an invisible undercurrent impacting the lives of many of our members and patients and we condemn all acts that cause marginalization, discrimination, harm or death to any person. From lupus mortality, to arthritis disability, and most recently to COVID-19 deaths, our minority communities have suffered disproportionately. As physicians and healthcare professionals, we are bound to protect the health of all of humanity. The American College of Rheumatology pledges to be a leader for inclusion and change for our members, our trainees, our staff and our patients.

2019 PRS Annual Scientific Meeting Speaker Brian Williams, MD, FACS spoke with Kasia Gilek-Siebert, MD,
 the rheumatology fellowship director at Roger Williams Medical Center in Rhode Island, on racial injustice and George Floyd. We encourage you to take a moment to view Dr. William's remarks and to read Dr. Gilek-Siebert's blog post.
