As of April 22, 2024, we will not be requiring masks to enter our clinic, but we will ALWAYS be considered a mask friendly office. Any patient or staff member that continues to mask is welcome in our office and can continue to wear masks indefinitely. Studies have shown that it does mitigate transmission of all respiratory infections, not just Covid-19.

Our pledges to you:

  • Any patient or staff member that wears a mask is welcome in our office.
  • If you are wearing a mask, our staff will also wear a mask while interacting with you.
  • If we have illness, we will not come to work to mitigate the spread of infection.
  • If we return to clinic and still have respiratory symptoms, we will remain masked while at the office.
  • If there is a resurgence of severe infection, we will require masks in clinic again.

Welcome to Catalina Pointe

Catalina Pointe Arthritis and Rheumatology clinic opened July 5, 2005. We are located at 7520 N Oracle Rd, Ste 100 just north of Ina Rd, south of Suffolk. The practicing rheumatologists of the clinic are: Drs. Laurie Bergstrom, Michael Maricic, Deborah Jane Power, Berchman Austin Vaz, Alpana Dhar, Ruta Tesfamicael, and Dominick Sudano. They are all board certified in both Internal Medicine & Rheumatology. Together, they have years of experience in caring for patients with rheumatic disorders and have been recognized for their excellence in patient care, medical education, and research. The physicians work in conjunction with nurse practitioner, Li-Ting Sudano, and physician assistants, Sandra Jansen and Kathryn Rose.

The mission at Catalina Pointe "is to provide state-of-the-art diagnosis and treatment of rheumatic disorders combined with personal and compassionate care." We have the capability of providing on-site infusion therapy in a comfortable setting for patients requiring infusions for rheumatic disorders. We utilize the latest technology for measuring bone density (dual energy x-ray absorptiometry or DXA) here in our office. We also have in-office lab drawing so that our patients do not have to go to another site to have their labs done.

We welcome the opportunity to take care of your rheumatic problems. Most insurances are accepted.
