About Rheumatology


Rheumatology, which deals with the disorders of joints and their supporting tissues, is one of the fastest advancing disciplines of medicine. These diseases are amongst the commonest cause for disability in the community. Studies show that up to 30% of population suffers from one rheumatic disease or the other. Earlier many of these diseases were considered to be untreatable. Patients with rheumatic diseases lived their life in misery and pain. But today, most rheumatic diseases are eminently treatable. An early diagnosis together with effective treatment will help most patients lead a near normal life free of pain and disability.

IRIS Social Responsibility


We believe that as front runners in the field of rheumatology, Iris has the responsibility to spread awareness about rheumatic diseases amongst patients’ peers and public. As part of this venture we have launched “Swasthya Sandhigal” a novel public health awareness initiative. The program was launched by His Highness Aditya Verma on July 16, 2017. As part of this program, we conduct patient awareness seminars and early arthritis detection camps across the state. To this day over 2000 patients have benefitted from this initiative. In addition we have used mass media and social media platforms to reach out to general public in our endeavor to disseminate information about rheumatology.

Accreditations and Certifications


In recognition of our sustained efforts to ensure Quality of services, IRIS has received the much coveted NABH accreditation. IRIS is in fact the first dedicated Rheumatology facility in the country to receive this recognition. The accreditation has been a validation of the robust systems we have implemented to maintain Quality Patient care in both clinical and paraclinical domains of services at IRIS. In addition we are also ISO 9001: 2015 certified.
