   The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (http://www.aaos.org) maintains a public online directory where you can find the address and phone number of orthopaedists who belong to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons. Orthopaedists are listed by geographic location and family name, inside the USA and in most countries, including The Philippines.

   The membership directory of the AAOS is located at:

   Orthopaedists are medical doctors specializing in bones and joints. They can examine patients, order blood tests, x-rays, bone and joint scans, prescribe medications and, if need be, perform surgeries. Orthopaedists are often better qualified than rheumatologists to treat rheumatic patients, although patients can benefit from the cooperation of different doctors.

   The American College of Rheumatology (http://www.rheumatology.org) maintains a public online directory where you can find the address and phone number of rheumatologists who belong to the American College of Rheumatology. Rheumatologists are listed by geographic location and family name, inside the USA and in most countries.

   The American College of Rheumatology is the publisher of Arthritis & Rheumatism, the medical journal in which the O’Dell study was published (where arthritis was successfully treated with antibiotics).

   Antibiotics are now used to achieve full remissions for at least 40%, if not 65% of patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Other rheumatic conditions are also treated with antibiotics. For more info, please join our group at:
