I have been a patient for Dr. Budd for a long time. My joints showed signs of RA but the tests did not. He would not stop until he found the cause of my pain. His staff is most helpful in scheduling my appointments when I am in St. Louis. The staff that gives me my infusions are so caring and friendly.

Very thorough and looks deeper to find solutions to a not so obvious autoimmune disease.
