Looking for a good doctor for rheumatoid arthritis...
Hi mums, I’d really appreciate some advice. Someone close to me has been experiencing symptoms that may be related to rheumatoid arthritis, and we’re considering seeing a specialist. For those who have gone through something similar, could you recommend a rheumatologist or clinic and share what you looked for when choosing one?

I really hear you on this, it's tough when someone close to you isn't feeling well and you're trying to find the right care. For something like rheumatoid arthritis, I'd definitely recommend starting with your GP or polyclinic, who can give you a referral to a good rheumatologist, since they'll know the specialists in your area and which ones have shorter wait times. From what I've seen, people tend to look for doctors who listen well and take time to explain things, so don't hesitate to ask around in your circle for personal recommendations too, or check reviews online to get a sense of their approach. Wishing the person well, and I hope they get the answers they need soon.

A friend of mine consulted Dr Anindita Santosa after dealing with swollen fingers, aching wrists and difficulty making a fist. She was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, and was given appropriate medication and follow-up to help manage her symptoms. Her experience made her feel more confident about choosing a best rheumatologist in Singapore 🤍☺️
