- Title
This is not only a question, but also an invitation; are rheumatologists "choosing wisely" in Turkey?

- Abstract
In 2012, the American Board of Internal Medicine Foundation launched a health initiative campaign named "Choosing Wisely" to advance a national dialog on avoiding unnecessary medical tests, treatments, and procedures. Each specialty society, including the American College of Rheumatology, developed evidence-based recommendation lists about tests and treatments that were overused and did not provide meaningful benefit to patients. In Turkey, only the Turkish Society of Internal Medicine published their recommendations within the scope of this campaign. The Turkish Society for Rheumatology should also publish its Choosing Wisely recommendations.
