Rheumatology Services in Miami, Florida
Pain, inflammation, and stiffness can disrupt daily life—and delaying care may allow symptoms to progress. At Brickell Rheumatology Wellness Center, Dr. Bojana Jovanovic evaluates and treats autoimmune and musculoskeletal conditions with a personalized plan that supports long-term comfort and function.
Rheumatology Services We Provide
Functional Rheumatology
A comprehensive, root-cause-informed approach that considers lifestyle, nutrition, stress, and environmental triggers alongside conventional care. Treatment plans may include dietary adjustments, targeted supplementation, stress-management tools, and personalized exercise programs—with the goal of reducing inflammation and supporting sustained wellness.
Rheumatoid Arthritis Treatment (RA)
Early diagnosis and consistent management help protect joint function. Care options may include DMARDs, biologics, anti-inflammatory medicines, and rehabilitation (physical/occupational therapy). We monitor disease activity and adjust treatment to support remission and daily mobility.
Osteoarthritis Management (OA)
Focused on comfort and function through non-surgical measures first: weight management, low-impact exercise, physical therapy, topical agents, oral medications, and injections (when appropriate). Advanced cases may be referred for surgical evaluation.
Lupus Treatment (SLE)
Coordinated care for a multi-system autoimmune condition. Management may include immunosuppressive therapy, hydroxychloroquine for skin/joint symptoms, corticosteroids for flares, and targeted biologics when indicated. Regular monitoring helps address fatigue, pain, and organ involvement. Sun protection counseling is part of routine care.
Gout & Autoimmune Disease Care
For gout, we address acute flares and long-term prevention (including uric acid–lowering therapy, diet guidance, hydration, and alcohol moderation). For autoimmune conditions, immunomodulating therapies and lifestyle strategies help reduce triggers and support stability.
