I'm looking for recommendations for a Rheumatologist in Baton Rouge.

Thanks!

UPDATE: I have been seeing Stephen Pollet at the BR Clinic. Very pleased. I would definitely recommend him.

I've referred several people to Angele Bourg at The BR Clinic. Call to see is she's taking new patients and what insurances accepted

If Dr Bourg isn't accepting new ones I've seen Dr Ceruti for several years and he's always done good by me.

I've been with Dr. Nesheiwat for 12 years plus. He's also at B.R. Clinic

I’m going to see Dr. Sean Shannon this Thursday. Been waiting forever due to being Medicaid right now but I hear he’s the best.
Diagnosed with Ankylosing Spondylitis recently

Stephen Lindsey

GOAT

I used to work on the children's hospital and he is amazing- he is an adult rheumatologist.

I will second this. I work in healthcare and when I needed to see someone he was the overwhelming suggestion. He’s awesome.

Stephen Lindsey doesn’t look to be in my insurance network. However most of the mentioned Docs work for the BR Clinic, which is. Thanks for the input from everyone.

Followup question for those with Br Clinic Rheumatologist experience: Do the doctors work together on weird cases like others do in a more private practice setting (think case discussion amongst the group members), do they work independently, or hard to tell/no idea?

That may help in the decision.

Why not just see a PA?

A Physician’s Assistant? That’s who recommended I see a Rheumatologist.

A rheumatologist's waiting room will be filled with the most bat-shite crazy collection of women you can find in one place other than a horse show.
