Columbia Rheumatology

When joint pain or swelling starts to slow you down, Columbia Rheumatology offers a place to check in. Specialists here handle autoimmune disorders, arthritis, osteoporosis, and other conditions that affect the musculoskeletal system. The hospital setting means access to diagnostic tools and coordinated care without the runaround between offices.

The office sits on the second floor at 161 Fort Washington Ave, just off West 168th Street in Washington Heights. That stretch of Fort Washington is lined with medical buildings, so it’s easy to pair a visit with other appointments or lab work. The neighborhood itself feels like a crossroads—busy enough to have pharmacies and cafes nearby, but not so crowded that you’re fighting for sidewalk space.

Most people call ahead to confirm availability; the number is (212) 305-4308. If you’re mapping the route, pull up directions on Google Maps before you leave. The building entrance is straightforward once you spot the address plaque.
