        About the Department of Pediatric Rheumatology at Academic Hospital for Pediatric Rheumatology of the University of Munich

        The Department of Pediatric Rheumatology at the Academic Hospital for Pediatric Rheumatology of the University of Munich offers the full range of diagnostics and treatment of rheumatic pathology in children and adolescents. Particular attention is paid to the therapy of inflammatory rheumatic diseases, for example, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, which is one of the most common ailments in this field of medicine. In addition, since 2004 the department has been conducting a special program of multimodal pain therapy aimed at treating chronic pain caused by diseases of the musculoskeletal system in children. The Chief Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med.
        Johannes-Peter Haas.

        A great advantage of the department is a special school for children and teenagers. Since rheumatic diseases and chronic pains represent a serious problem, which requires a long-term treatment, a full-fledged school was established on the basis of the department. It helps children to keep up with their peers at school. The school works all year round and offers the services of competent teachers. Classes are held in small groups for students of all age groups (from the 1st to the 13th grade). Major subjects include German, English and French, mathematics, physics and Latin. All educational programs correspond to the classical school curriculum.
