Rheumatologist joins Griffin Faculty Physicians in Shelton office

Divya Mamootil, M.D.

DERBY - Griffin Faculty Physicians is pleased to welcome Divya Mamootil, M.D., a highly skilled and compassionate rheumatologist, to its multi-specialty medical group.

Dr. Mamootil joins Griffin Faculty Physicians Rheumatology after completing a fellowship at St. Luke’s University Hospital in Bethlehem, PA where she cared for individuals diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, osteoporosis, gout, vasculitis, psoriatic arthritis, and other rheumatic conditions and diseases with a focus on applying evidence-based medicine and demonstrating high-quality clinical skills to improve the patient’s health and well-being.

“I chose to specialize in Rheumatology because I want to be the doctor people turn to when something is wrong and no one else has been able to explain why," Dr. Mamootil said. "It's the work I love most, and it's what I do best.

"When it comes to treatment, there is rarely just one right answer. Taking the time to talk with each patient, we find what works together. More than anything, I want to be the doctor that people can count on - the one who listens, explains, and helps it all finally make sense."

Dr. Mamootil earned a degree in Science from the University of Toronto in Canada before receiving her medical degree from the Ross University School of Medicine in Barbados where she was on the Dean’s Honor Roll. She completed a residency in Internal Medicine at Ascension St. Agnes Hospital in Baltimore and enhanced her medical training with Rheumatology elective rotations at MedStar Washington Hospital Center and Johns Hopkins Hospital.

Dr. Mamootil is currently seeing patients at the Griffin Faculty Physicians Rheumatology office at 2 Ivy Brook Road, Suite 115, in Shelton.
