What do to after a patient with IBD develops a spondyloarthropathy?

Here are my learning objectives:

• Recognize the rheumatological manifestations of IBD
• Know when a referral to rheumatology is needed (and what you need to tell us!)
• Review treatment options

Dr. Sherry Rohekar completed medical school at the University of Western Ontario, and then went on to train in general internal medicine at Queen's University and rheumatology at the University of Toronto.  She also has a Master's of Clinical Epidemiology from UWO.  She is now an Associate Professor in the Department of Medicine, Division of Rheumatology at UWO.  Her research and clinical interest is spondyloarthritis, including ankylosing spondylitis and psoriatic arthritis.  She is currently on the executive committee the SPondyloArthritis Research Consortium of Canada, and member of the International Psoriasis and Arthritis Research Team, the Group for Research and Assessment of Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis and the SPondyloArthritis Research & Treatment Network.
