Meet Dr. Allabban:

Dr. Waseem Allabban is a board-certified rheumatologist with over a decade of experience providing expert, compassionate care to patients in Chandler and the surrounding communities, including those seeking Arizona arthritis and rheumatology services.  


**Education and Training**  

Dr. Allabban earned his Doctor of Medicine degree in 2000 from the University of Damascus, one of the most prestigious medical institutions in the Middle East. He then completed his Internal Medicine residency at Saint Joseph Hospital in Chicago, where he developed a strong foundation in comprehensive patient care.  


Following residency, Dr. Allabban joined Banner Good Samaritan Medical Center (now Banner University Medical Center – Phoenix) as a hospitalist, managing acutely ill patients in a high-volume, academic hospital setting. This role deepened his clinical skills and broadened his experience with complex medical cases.  


Driven by a passion for autoimmune diseases and musculoskeletal medicine, Dr. Allabban pursued fellowship training in rheumatology at the University of Kansas Medical Center (KUMC), completing his fellowship in 2014. While at KUMC, he trained under several nationally recognized leaders in the field:  


- Professor Mehrdad Maz, Program Director at KUMC and previously affiliated with the Mayo Clinic  

- The late Professor Herbert Lindsley, a renowned clinician and educator in rheumatology  

- Dr. Jason Springer, who joined KUMC from the Cleveland Clinic Vasculitis Center  

- Dr. John Martinez, an expert in complex systemic autoimmune disease management  


This rigorous training shaped Dr. Allabban’s diagnostic precision and commitment to providing personalized, evidence-based care.  


**Professional Experience**  

After fellowship, Dr. Allabban established Arizona Rheumatology Consultants, PLC in Chandler, Arizona, a patient-centered specialty clinic dedicated to individuals living with autoimmune and inflammatory conditions. His practice has become a trusted center for rheumatologic care, also catering to patients from Mesa and Tempe, known for thorough evaluations, advanced treatment options, and collaborative care plans tailored to each patient’s needs.  


**Areas of Expertise and Special Interest**  

Dr. Allabban provides comprehensive care for a wide range of rheumatic diseases, including:  


- **Inflammatory Arthritis:** Rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, axial spondyloarthritis  

- **Connective Tissue Diseases:** Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), systemic sclerosis, inflammatory myopathies  

- **Vasculitis Syndromes:** Giant cell arteritis, ANCA-associated vasculitis  


He has a particular interest in non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (nr-axSpA) and is committed to improving awareness, early diagnosis, and effective treatment of this often-overlooked condition. His clinical approach integrates MRI, SPECT-CT imaging, inflammatory marker testing, and the latest targeted biologic therapies.  


**Philosophy of Care**  

Dr. Allabban believes that effective care begins with active listening and patient partnership. He takes time to understand his patients’ concerns, explain their conditions in clear language, and collaboratively develop personalized treatment plans. His goal is to help each patient regain comfort, preserve function, and achieve lasting improvements in quality of life.  


At Arizona Rheumatology Consultants, Dr. Allabban and his team remain dedicated to delivering cutting-edge rheumatologic care grounded in compassion, integrity, and clinical excellence.
