Rheumatology visits often center on joint pain, autoimmune flurries, or lingering fatigue that other tests haven’t explained. Elana Bernstein sees patients at 622 W 168th St, a stretch of Washington Heights where the sidewalks hum with neighborhood rhythms and the hospital towers anchor the skyline.

From lupus evaluations to gout management and vasculitis work-ups, the practice handles the spectrum of rheumatic conditions. Morning stiffness, swollen digits, or unexplained rashes that resist dermatology creams can all land on the exam-table agenda. The office shares the building with other specialists, so lab draws and imaging are usually just an elevator ride away.

Directions are easiest pulled from the map; subway riders can hop off at the 168th Street A/C/1 lines. To confirm an appointment slot or ask about insurance coverage, call (212) 304-6610 before heading uptown.
