It used to be that a diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis would cause patients to fear for the future. 

But that is changing, as we’ll hear from Dr. Walter Maksymowych from the University of Alberta. He shares a more hopeful future for patients and the importance of following evidence-based advice from medical professionals.

 

We’ll also hear from former US National Volleyball player, Cheryl Koehn. She was diagnosed over 30 years ago and will share not only her story, but more information on patient support through her organization, Arthritis Consumer Experts.
