My minor child was diaganosed with juvenile arthritis in February. Yet when I took her to see a physiatrist, orthopedic and pediatric doctor within our medical group, all contradicted the rheumatologist's diagnosis. Which was a diagnosis based solely on a clinical exam. Yet my daughter has continuous pain in her knees. There is only one pediatric rheumatologist at our medical site. I want to see a different pediatric rheumatologist at a different hospital, to truly see if my daughter has JRA or an other condition doctors are failing to find.
