Founded in 1949 by Dr. Carlos Sacasa, the Southern California Rheumatology Society has grown from a small group of dedicated physicians into the region’s leading professional organization for rheumatology.
Originally supported by the Arthritis Foundation, SCRS evolved into an independent 501(c)(3) non-profit, driven by the mission to advance rheumatologic care through education, advocacy, and professional connection.
Our members include board-certified rheumatologists, fellows, advanced practice providers, and allied health professionals across Southern California.
