Osteoporosis care at home in Bergen County

Managing osteoporosis without the trips to an office

Bergen County is our eastern edge, from Hackensack and Teaneck through Paramus and Ridgewood up to Mahwah and Ramsey.

A clinician comes to your home anywhere in Bergen County with a portable exam kit and your chart already open. Visits run 45 to 60 minutes, which is the time it takes to examine you properly, review every medication in the house and write a plan your family can follow. Whether you are looking for a house call doctor, a visiting physician or in-home medical care for a senior parent in Bergen County, this is that service.

Two halves of the same problem

Fractures need weak bone and a fall. Most attention goes to the bone half, and the fall half is where the bigger difference is often available. We treat both: bone density, vitamin D, calcium and medication on one side, and the loose rug, the dark landing and the sedating tablet on the other.

Treatment worth continuing

Osteoporosis medications are frequently started and quietly abandoned, sometimes for good reasons and often not. We review whether the treatment is still right, whether it is being taken correctly, and whether the reason it stopped can be solved.

After a hospital stay in Bergen

If you have recently been discharged from Hackensack University Medical Center or Holy Name Medical Center in Teaneck, we can usually visit within two to three days to reconcile the discharge medication list against what is actually in the house. We are independent and not affiliated with any hospital system.
