Our Doctors

Myositis is a rare disease, affecting approximately 50,000 Americans a year.  It is critical for patients who suspect they may be suffering from myositis to be evaluated by an experienced myositis specialist.

The doctors at the Johns Hopkins Myositis Center have spent the majority of their medical careers diagnosing, researching and treating myositis.  As the physicians with the most experience in recognizing myositis, their expertise is now gathered in one center, conveniently located at the Johns Hopkins Bayview campus in Baltimore, Maryland.

Our team features  rheumatologists, neurologists,  pulmonologists, along with physical medicine rehabilitation specialists who evaluate hundreds of new patients a year who are referred with a suspected or confirmed diagnosis of myositis.
