Anna Smagina is a rheumatologist in Riga. She sees adult patients aged 18 and over at the Grand Medical medical center in Purvciems and also offers online consultations. Consultations are available in Latvian, English and Russian.
About the doctor
Dr Anna Smagina is a certified rheumatologist. She diagnoses and treats inflammatory and autoimmune conditions of the joints, spine and connective tissue in adults.
Patients most often come to Dr Smagina with joint pain and swelling, morning stiffness, or test results that suggest a possible rheumatic disease. She asks about your symptoms in detail and reviews your test results. If needed, she orders additional tests to make an accurate diagnosis and choose the right treatment.
Areas of expertise
Dr Smagina sees patients with conditions such as:
- inflammatory arthritis: rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, gout;
- systemic connective tissue diseases: systemic lupus erythematosus, systemic sclerosis, inflammatory myopathies;
- vasculitis and other rheumatic diseases;
- differential diagnosis when a rheumatic disease is suspected.
Approach to patients
Dr Smagina combines accurate diagnosis with individually tailored treatment and keeps her knowledge up to date. Many rheumatic diseases are chronic, so alongside the right diagnosis, regular follow-up matters too, so that treatment can be adjusted in time.
When to see a rheumatologist
Consider booking a rheumatology consultation if:
- joint pain lasts for several weeks or keeps coming back;
- joints are swollen, red or warm to the touch;
- you have morning stiffness in your joints or back that does not go away quickly;
- back pain gets worse at rest or at night and eases with movement;
- your joints have become less mobile;
- you have had a sudden attack of severe joint pain, for example in the big toe;
- blood tests show raised inflammation markers or antibodies (rheumatoid factor, ANA, etc.);
- an autoimmune disease is suspected, or has already been diagnosed and needs follow-up.

At an in-person appointment, the doctor will ask about your symptoms, examine your joints and review your test results. If needed, she will order tests or imaging, for example a joint ultrasound.
During an online consultation you can discuss your symptoms and test results and get recommendations on further tests and treatment. If an examination is needed, the doctor will suggest an in-person visit.
We recommend preparing in advance any medical documents you have:
- recent blood test results;
- X-ray, ultrasound, MRI or CT reports of the joints and spine;
- discharge summaries from medical institutions and reports from other doctors;
- a list of the medicines you are currently taking.
This helps the doctor make a more accurate diagnosis and see how things have changed over time.
