Rheumatology Office Visit
In-person visit

Meet with a local rheumatologist

Joint pain, stiffness, or symptoms that point to an autoimmune or inflammatory condition — a rheumatologist can help you get real answers. A General Medicine clinician reviews your history and builds a referral request, so your in-person visit starts without delay. If something's missing, we handle it before you go.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a referral to book?

Whether virtual or in person, you never need a referral before booking a visit with General Medicine. For in-person visits, we reach out to specialists near you to schedule your appointment. Tell us who you'd prefer, or let us choose for you — either way, we confirm they're in-network before booking. If that specialist requires a referral, our clinical team reviews your health history and symptoms, and if it all lines up, creates a referral for you before we book. That referral is yours to keep, whether we book for you or you take it somewhere else.

How does pricing work?

Before checkout, you'll see an estimated cash and insurance price based on your specialist and plan, but you won't pay until your visit — and that amount may shift with your care needs. All you pay today is $45. $15 covers a General Medicine clinician reviewing your info and providing a referral. $30 covers scheduling coordination: confirming the specialist's in-network, booking a time that works for you, and sending your history ahead. These fees aren't covered by insurance, but are FSA/HSA eligible.

What if I'm not sure this needs an in-person visit?

A General Medicine clinician can help you figure that out. Some rheumatology concerns can be handled through a specialist review, which is virtual and does not require an in-person visit, while others genuinely need a hands-on exam. If a specialist review turns out to be the better fit for what you're dealing with, we'll point you there instead.

What might a rheumatologist check?

Usually a hands-on joint exam plus bloodwork to look for signs of inflammation or autoimmune activity.

What should I bring to my visit?

Recent bloodwork or imaging, if you have it — your rheumatologist uses it to avoid repeating tests unnecessarily.
