{"store":{"baseInfo":{"podcastTitle":"Rheumology Unlocked with Dr. D.J. Williams","slug":"drdavidjwilliamsshow","podcastDescription":"

I provide clear, science-based information for people living with autoimmune and arthritis conditions—so you can make confident, informed decisions about your health.

Here, you’ll find evidence-based insights on autoimmune diseases (including rheumatoid and psoriatic arthritis), anti-inflammatory nutrition, helpful supplements, movement, and stress-management strategies. My goal is simple: to help you thrive with arthritis, not just survive.

My guiding motto remains: “You have a disease, but you are not the disease.”

I’m Dr. David J. Williams, a double-board-certified rheumatologist and internal medicine physician. With training in Stanford Nutrition Science and Mindfulness from the University of Massachusetts, I founded Rheumatologist OnCall to expand access to high-quality rheumatologic care.
