The BWH Lupus Center is a comprehensive center that offers evaluation and treatment of people with known or suspected lupus or antiphospholipid syndrome. Our expert care is integrated across various disciplines, including rheumatology, nephrology, neurology, cardiology and dermatology. The Lupus Center patient liaison helps to coordinate compassionate care, support and education about lupus.
The Lupus Center also offers patient education related to cardiovascular risk reduction, exercise, osteoporosis prevention and information for patients with lupus who are considering pregnancy.
We also conduct research studies into the causes of lupus, what triggers it to flare, and the effects of medication on lupus activity.
