Fox Valley Orthopedics is pleased to welcome back Dr. Raheem Nazeer to their team of physicians. Dr. Nazeer is a board-certified rheumatologist who manages and treats rheumatic diseases. He is currently accepting new patients at Fox Valley Orthopedics’ Barrington, Elgin and Geneva locations.

Dr. Nazeer received his Doctor of Medicine from Rush Medical College, Chicago, and completed his residency at Rush-Presbyterian-St. Luke’s Medical Center, Chicago. He is a Fellow at the American College of Rheumatology, and member of the International Society of Clinical Densitometry.

“In recent years we’ve seen an increase in demand for a rheumatologist,” said Fox Valley Orthopedics’ CEO Barry Mathews. “Osteoarthritis, tendonitis, lupus, and inflammatory arthritides are painful diseases, and having a specialist trained in finding the underlying cause and being able to offer treatment options can offer patients enormous comfort.”
