Biosimilars are biological products used in the treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis, Psoriatic Arthritis and Ankylosing Spondylitis. They are biological products produced from pre-existing Biologics. Symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis include joint pain, swelling and stiffness. At first, rheumatoid arthritis usually only attacks a few joints, but over time it affects more. Early treatment is important as it can make the disease more likely to go into remission. Unlike some other types of arthritis, the chronic swelling from RA can cause permanent damage to the joints. Rheumatoid arthritis treatments include disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs), nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs), analgesics (painkillers) and biologics (medications produced from living organisms or components of living organisms).

Uric acid is a natural waste product that forms when the body breaks down purines, which are found in certain foods and are also produced by the body. Normally, the kidneys filter out the uric acid, and it is excreted in urine. However, in people with gout, either the body produces excessive uric acid or the kidneys are unable to remove it efficiently, resulting in high levels of uric acid in the blood.

    Dr. Leaf was empathetic and highly trained to recognize fibromyalgia. I was in limbo for 2 yrs not knowing what was wrong with me! I am so grateful to have met her and work with her. She sent me to a 30 day program in a hospital setting that was incredibly helpful. Unfortunately the funding was cut after 25 yrs of servicing clients - right when we are on the cusp of understanding more about the disease and getting recognized globally for being a TRUE disease ... not something all in my/our head! Dr. Leaf you are amazing
