The Division of Pediatric Rheumatology at Hospital for Special Surgery is affiliated with Weill Cornell Medicine, and provides complex and comprehensive diagnostic services for children with rheumatic diseases and related conditions.
Our expertise includes:
- juvenile rheumatoid arthritis
- lupus
- pediatric scleroderma

- Lyme disease
- Raynaud's phenomenon
- Other pediatric rheumatology conditions
Virtually every medicine that is used by the adult rheumatologist - in the appropriate child, with very careful monitoring - is now used by our experienced pediatric rheumatologists with excellent outcomes. With new biologic therapies, many of them tested at Hospital for Special Surgery, along with physical therapy, the disease can be controlled and children can regain normal function.
I love Dr Piracha. He is so knowledgeable and thoughtful. And has helped me manage my back and neck pain. I’m so grateful to and for him. Highly recommend going to him if you have any sciatica, cervical, or any other back pain.
The office is professional and personal. Dr. Berlin has been my pulmonologist for 8 years.. He takes the time to explain exams and test results, answer questions thoroughly. He respects my approach and we work out an action plan that we are comfortable with, adjusting as necessary.
Dr. Mehta has been treating me for many years now. His bedside manner is impeccable. very knowledgeable and caring.
