We aim to provide a comprehensive and rapid assessment and diagnostic service at The London Rheumatology and MSK Clinic

Dr Naveen Bhadauria is a top private Consultant Rheumatologist in London. Completing his medical degree in June 2004 at Guy's, King's and St Thomas' Medical School, Dr Bhadauria previously completed a BSc in Immunology in 2001 which set the foundation for his path into the world of rheumatology. Dr Bhadauria entered specialist training in Rheumatology and General Internal Medicine in 2012. During his training, he experienced a wide variety of rheumatological problems including common conditions and more complex cases. His experience in acute and general medicine has helped him to develop into a well-rounded rheumatologist where he feels he can really provide holistic care to his patients.

During a consultation, Dr Bhadauria works in partnership with his patients to ensure their comfort and understanding. He offers an open and honest discussion regarding any treatment or investigations, should they be required and fully involves each individual in the decision-making process. Dr Bhadauria’s current practice involves looking after patients with all aspects of General Rheumatology with a special interest in Early Inflammatory Arthritis and the management of patients with Connective Tissue Diseases such as Lupus or Systemic Sclerosis. Other areas he commonly manages include back pain, neck pain, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis and gout. Dr Bhadauria conducts research at his current NHS practice and is the Research Lead for his department as well as the Principle Investigator for several commercial and academic clinical trials.

His previous research during his BSc in Immunology looked at the role of heat shock proteins as possible target antigens in the development of Rheumatoid Arthritis. An important priority for Dr Bhadauria is to maintain a high professional standard. Regularly attending conferences and reading the latest journals, Dr Bhadauria regularly keeps himself up to date with the latest evidence and research in Rheumatology in order to provide the best possible care to his patients.
