At our Osteoporosis Prevention and Treatment Center,
our caring, professional staff will provide the guidance, knowledge, and
treatment you need to manage osteoporosis. We have designed our center to make evaluation,
education and treatment of osteoporosis comfortable and efficient.
We offer:
- Bone Densitometry: Quickly and painlessly measures
bone density, a key factor in osteoporosis
- X-ray: Measures the thickness of the spine and hipbones
After your bone densitometry, your physician may ask you to
meet with our nurse educator. She is a registered nurse who specializes in
osteoporosis education. She will discuss your bone densitometry results, proper
nutrition, how to lower your risk, preventive medications, and treatment
options and plans if necessary.
