Dr. Cotter is dual-boarded in Rheumatology and Integrative Medicine. Because of her experience caring for patients with arthritis in the conventional setting, she understands the disease process and medication used to treat arthritis. Her additional integrative medicine training makes her uniquely qualified to address lifestyle for optimizing arthritis treatment.
This program is not intended to replace the care provided by a patient's primary care physician or rheumatologist and does not include conventional rheumatology care or emergency services. Dr. Cotter will not start, adjust, or discontinue medications or change treatment plans outlined by the patient's established physician.
