Compassion. Commitment. Calling.
SSM Health is a healing ministry — an integrated Catholic, not-for-profit health system serving communities across the Midwest in Illinois, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Wisconsin. We offer rewarding opportunities for rheumatologists to provide expert care for patients with autoimmune and musculoskeletal conditions in both outpatient and hospital-based settings.
Here, rheumatologists embrace their calling and find their professional home within our healing ministry. With a devotion to improving quality of life for patients living with chronic conditions, a commitment to treating the whole person, and a dedication to advancing rheumatologic care, they embody the shared Mission of SSM Health: Through our exceptional health care services, we reveal the healing presence of God.
