LITTLE ROCK -  OrthoArkansas will be adding a new Rheumatology Center with a team of rheumatology specialists of more than  20 years combined experience at the Little Rock-Midtown, North Little Rock and Conway locations.

"Our new Rheumatology Center represents an exciting milestone for OrthoArkansas as we continue to broaden our scope of services and enhance our ability to care for individuals with musculoskeletal conditions," said Dr. Tad Pruitt, Co-President at OrthoArkansas. "Rheumatology and orthopedics are inherently connected, and by integrating rheumatology services into our practice, we can offer patients a seamless continuum of care."

Patients will have access to a comprehensive range of services within the Rheumatology Center, including treatment, infusions, labs, and imaging - all in one place. The center ensures that patients receive the highest quality care in a familiar and comfortable setting. 

The Rheumatology team is dedicated to providing personalized, holistic care to improve the lives of patients. 

“I truly enjoy getting to know my patients personally including every aspect of their life that affects their health. I feel strongly that it is my mission to help diagnose, treat and educate patients in a manner that empowers them to take charge of their health and wellbeing. Learning to live with a chronic illness can feel daunting but with a great medical team we can provide the support they need to stay focused on their life and not their illness, “ said Debra Brent, APRN at OrthoArkansas.
