Dr. Douglass will be joined by a guest expert, Rheumatologist Dr. Gloria Gaston. They'll talk about current developments in Arthritis treatment and management.

This number increases with age, with 5.4% of adults aged 18–44 reporting arthritis, 26.0% of adults aged 45–64 reporting arthritis, and 47.3% of adults aged 65 and older reporting arthritis.
