Description

Clin Associate Professor Andrew Taylor is the principal Rheumatologist at Murdoch Rheumatology.  He established the practice at St John of God Healthcare, Murdoch in 1997.  The hospital itself was only 4 years old at that time and Andrew was the first Rheumatologist to establish his primary practice in this centre, serving the southern suburbs of Perth.  St John of God Healthcare, Murdoch has rapidly expanded and is now the largest private health facility south of Perth.   The new state public hospital, the Fiona Stanley Hospital is directly adjacent and will be opening soon, catering for the southern metropolitan area of Perth.  Andrew will be a member of its staff.

Murdoch Rheumatology is therefore located within a vibrant specialist health precinct with access to private and public health facilities, as well as pathology and radiology services, a pharmacy and other medical and surgical practices.

At Murdoch Rheumatology care of the patient focuses on experienced assessment, diagnosis, education and treatment.  It is essential for a patient to have a full understanding of their condition and not just rely on medications alone.  Andrew works in close partnership with physiotherapists, occupational therapists and podiatrists as well as the patient's general practitioner.

Musculoskeletal ultrasound is a powerful tool for assessing joint, tendon, ligament and bone problems in rheumatic diseases.  Dr Taylor has trained in musculoskeletal ultrasound and incorporates it in his practice at Murdoch Rheumatology.

A Rheumatologist is a medical specialist who diagnoses and medically manages patients with arthritis and other rheumatic diseases. These are health problems that affect the joints, muscles, bones.  Because these diseases are often complex, they benefit from the care of an expert. Only Rheumatologists are experts in this field of medicine.
