Referrals

Diesease & Medication Informatio
Dr. Larissa Jones is accepting referrals for the following:

 

  • Suspected or early inflammatory arthritis, including but not limited to: 

    • Rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis and enteropathic (IBD-associated) arthritis
       

  • Suspected or early connective tissue diseases, including but not limited to:

    • Systemic lupus erythematosus, scleroderma, Sjögren’s syndrome, and mixed connective tissue disease
       

  • Established rheumatological disease requiring transfer of care due to physician retirement or relocation
     

  • Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) or auto-inflammatory disorders requiring transition to Adult Rheumatology care
     

  • Suspected vasculitis, giant cell arteritis (GCA), or polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR)
     

  • Crystal arthritis, including CPPD and gout
     

  • Systemic disease with arthritis manifestations, including but not limited to sarcoidosis or infection-related arthritis

Unfortunately, it is beyond our scope of practice to see patients primarily for chronic pain or mechanical back pain without an underlying systemic rheumatic disease.  Please redirect these referrals to a pain specialist. 

Similarly, we do not generally see patients specifically for hypermobility or hereditary connective tissue diseases, unless it is to rule out a concurrent or mimicing systemic rheumatic disease - these referrals are better served by Medical Genetics. 

Fax all referrals to 780-426-7291
Currently, referrals cannot be accepted via Connect Care.
 
For accurate triaging, referrals must include a clear clinical question, patient contact information, 
past medical & surgical history, allergies and current medication list.
