Rheumatology depth. Research-grade precision
Lakeside Clinical Research Center is the dedicated research division of Overlake Arthritis and Osteoporosis Center — one of the Pacific Northwest’s leading rheumatology practices. With over 50,000 patients in our database, six board-certified rheumatology providers, and two decades of subspecialty clinical experience, we bring a depth of patient access and disease expertise that most research sites simply cannot match
Dual-role staff
Our research team are clinicians first. That means your study benefits from providers who understand the disease, not just the protocol. Every staff member completes our rigorous internal research training program, holds CITI GCP certification, and is assigned a primary and backup role to ensure zero gaps in coverage.
Diverse patient population
Across gout, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, lupus, psoriatic arthritis, and other rheumatologic conditions.
15 completed trials
We serve the greater Seattle-Bellevue metro, giving your study access to the demographic breadth that sponsors and regulators increasingly require.
Central IRB
We operate under Central IRB, enabling faster site activation without the delays common at institutions reliant on local IRB review cycles.
Powered by CRIO Central eSource. Quality is embedded at the point of capture. Sponsors and monitors enjoy fully remote access — data is clean, structured, and audit-ready from day one.
Regional patient draw
Our reputation extends well beyond the immediate Bellevue area. Patients commute to our clinic from as far as Cle Elum, Tacoma, and Everett for rheumatology care — a testament to the depth of trust we have built in this community, and a direct advantage for sponsors who need reliable enrollment.
When you place a study at Lakeside, you get a site that treats your protocol with the same rigor we bring to patient care. We do not overcommit. We perform.
Everything your protocol needs. Under one roof.
Infusion Suite
Dedicated infusion chairs staffed by research-experienced infusion nurses. We handle biologic infusions daily — IV study drugs are standard practice here, not a logistical challenge.
Imaging
On-site musculoskeletal ultrasound and DEXA scanning. Radiology technologists credentialed and available for protocol-driven imaging without external scheduling delays.
Specimen Processing Lab
Fully equipped on-site lab with calibrated medical equipment, phlebotomy services, and cold chain storage including –20°C freezers and secure ambient, refrigerated, and frozen drug storage.
Remote Monitoring Ready
CRIO Central eSource enables fully remote monitoring. Sponsors access real-time, audit-ready data without requiring on-site visits — reducing your monitoring costs and timelines.
Diverse Patient Population
Our 50,000+ patient database spans multiple ethnicities and demographics across the greater Seattle-Bellevue corridor — supporting enrolment targets and diversity requirements.
EKG & Diagnostics
On-site EKG capabilities alongside ultrasound and DEXA. All equipment is calibrated and maintained to clinical trial standards, available without external facility scheduling.
Everything your protocol needs. Under one roof.

Why Choose Us?
Patient Access at Scale
A 50,000-patient rheumatology database is not a projection — it is the result of 20 years of subspecialty practice. When you need enrollment, we have the population. Enrollment delays cost studies money. We reduce that risk from day one.
Disease Expertise That Protects Your Data
Protocol deviations often happen when site staff don’t truly understand the disease. Our team lives in rheumatology. That clinical depth protects your data integrity and your timeline.
Clean Data. Remote-Ready.
CRIO Central eSource means quality is embedded when data is captured — not corrected weeks later during a monitoring visit. Sponsors who work with us spend less time on queries and more time moving their study forward.
A Site That Runs Like a Business
Lakeside is operated with the same rigor as the clinical practice that built it. We have protocols for everything — staffing coverage, drug storage, specimen handling, and communication. We don’t learn how to run a trial on your budget.
