Community Care Rheumatology at Wellness Way offers patients many subspecialties on site. Within our Rheumatology suite is InfusionCare, an infusion therapy practice under the medical director of Dr. Jessica Chapman. InfusionCare administers the infusion medications ordered by physicians and manage the infusion process, while your physician continues to manage your condition and care.
