• Quantitative Ultrasound Screening - Measures bone density at the heel using sound waves rather than radiation. An ideal way to detect low bone density and identify those who would benefit from a DEXA scan.

• DEXA Scan - Can detect osteoporosis before a fracture occurs, predict the chance of a future fracture, determine the rate of bone loss, and monitor the effects of treatment. A physician referral is required.

Our women's health nurse practitioners offer counseling to help patients slow bone loss and increase bone thickness through diet, exercise and more. We also offer a Physical Therapy Program for Women that includes an evaluation with an experienced physical therapist and a personalized exercise program to help improve posture and strength, prevent falls and decrease the risk for fractures.
