Johannes C. Nossent is a Rheumatologist based at 35 Stirling Highway, Perth, WA, Australia.
Rheumatology is about more than sore joints. It also covers long-term conditions where the immune system affects the body, and where inflammation can spread to different areas. Johannes works with people who have ongoing joint pain, stiffness, and swelling, as well as conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, osteoarthritis, and gout.
Some patients see him because of autoimmune illnesses such as lupus (including lupus that affects the kidneys), vasculitis, and conditions like Sjögren’s syndrome, where things like dry eyes and a dry mouth can be a big part of daily life. Others come in with problems linked to the lungs and blood vessels, including interstitial lung disease and blood clots.
There’s also a group of cases where infections or sudden inflammation need careful attention. This can include septic arthritis or infectious arthritis, and lung infections such as pneumonia. In many cases, the aim is to get the right diagnosis early, then keep symptoms under control while also watching for flare-ups.
Over time, rheumatology care can involve more than one body system, so ongoing follow-up matters. Johannes also looks after people dealing with complications like chronic kidney disease, high blood pressure in infants, and issues related to the spine or hips, including fractured spine and hip replacement care where relevant.
Education, work history, and any clinical trial involvement aren’t listed in the information available here. The appointment focus stays practical: listening to what’s happening, explaining options in plain language, and working out a plan that fits around day-to-day life.
