Her approach focuses on reducing inflammation, preventing flare-ups, protecting organs, and improving long-term health outcomes. With compassionate guidance and advanced treatment strategies, she empowers patients to manage lupus effectively and lead stable, symptom-controlled lives.

What It Is

SLE is an autoimmune disease where the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissues and organs, causing widespread inflammation and damage.

Procedure

Diagnosis involves detailed evaluation, including blood tests (ANA, dsDNA, complement levels), urine tests, imaging, and organ-specific examinations. Dr. Verma creates a customised treatment plan involving immunosuppressants, anti-inflammatory medications, lifestyle adjustments, and regular monitoring.

Why It Happens

Lupus occurs due to a combination of genetic tendencies, hormonal factors, environmental triggers, infections, and abnormal immune response that attacks the body’s own tissues.
