Bones naturally lose some strength with age, and for some people that leads to osteoporosis, which raises the risk of fractures. The reassuring part is that it can be assessed and managed well.
We can check your bone health, talk through your risk, arrange a bone density scan where needed, and advise on the things that help, including diet, activity, vitamin D, and medication where appropriate. For those who need it, we provide Aclasta (zoledronic acid) infusions here at the practice, a once-yearly treatment, so you can have it done somewhere familiar rather than being sent elsewhere.
We will keep your bone health under review over time, so treatment stays on track and you stay steady on your feet.
When to book: if you have osteoporosis, have had a fracture or a scan showing bone loss, or would like your bone health assessed.
