Connect with board-certified rheumatologists specializing in gout management. Fast diagnosis, personalized treatment plans, and ongoing monitoring — all online.
Gout is the most common form of inflammatory arthritis, affecting over 9 million Americans. Early and proper treatment prevents long-term joint damage.
Gout attacks strike suddenly — often at night — causing intense pain, swelling, and redness, most commonly in the big toe, ankle, or knee.
Elevated uric acid (hyperuricemia) causes crystals to form in joints. Diet, genetics, kidney function, and certain medications all play a role.
With the right medication and lifestyle changes, most patients achieve full remission. Our team helps you get there — and stay there.
Chronic gout leads to tophi (crystal deposits), permanent joint damage, and kidney stones. Don't wait for the next flare to seek care.
Everything you need to manage gout effectively — no waiting rooms, no travel, no hassle.

"After years of painful flares, GoutCare got my uric acid under 5 in three months. I haven't had a flare since. The video visits fit perfectly around my work schedule."
"The team explained everything so clearly. I finally understand what triggers my flares and how to avoid them. The dietitian session alone was worth it."
"I had a flare on a Sunday morning. GoutCare had me on medication by noon. The same-day access is something I've never experienced with any other doctor."
Yes. Gout is one of the most effectively managed conditions via telemedicine. Diagnosis relies heavily on patient history, symptoms, and lab values — all reviewable online. Physical joint examination is rarely required to confirm gout and start treatment.
