St. Luke's Rheumatology Associates - Easton
As a rheumatologic patient, I bring a unique perspective to my patients’ treatment because I deal with many of the same symptoms and take some of the same medications as my patients. I strongly believe in holistic treatment and understand firsthand the social and psychological impact of the diseases I treat.
I’m a fellowship-trained rheumatologist and a clinical densitometrist certified to perform bone density testing. I completed my internal medicine residency and rheumatology fellowship at Geisinger Medical Center in Pennsylvania. As a rheumatologist, I treat autoimmune diseases that affect every organ system in the body. I am especially interested in osteoporosis treatment, fracture prevention and seronegative spondyloarthritides, such as psoriatic arthritis. During my training, I also presented original research at multiple American and international conferences, including the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) conference and the European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR).
A Lehigh University graduate, I am excited to once again be in the area, but now as an attending physician.
Outside of work, I enjoy eating and cooking international cuisine, traveling, writing young adult fiction, exercising and practicing my Japanese skills.

“I saw this physician RAJESH KUPPURAJU per my PCP suggestion and referral to rule out Fibromyalgia. After reviewing my medical history and a physical exam, a negative diagnosis of Fibromyalgia was given. He felt my problem was related to my spine and referred me to a neurosurgeon.”

“I was happy that Dr. Kupperaju got the medication I needed to be approved, and someone messaged me promptly about it. Now, I'm unsure about reducing the copay enough to afford it! Being on Medicare is like driving in the night without lights! And to be honest, getting help with this stuff is frustrating. I never had an issue with my SLH insurance. Its not easy getting information when on Medicare.”
