Why a Geriatrician is Essential for Senior Health
As we get older, our bodies change. Health issues can become more complex, often involving multiple chronic conditions. A geriatrician has the expertise to manage this complexity. We understand how different medications interact in an older body. We know how to spot subtle changes in memory or balance that other doctors might miss.
The Challenges of Managing Multiple Health Issues
It's common for a senior to see a heart doctor, a bone doctor, and another specialist for diabetes. The problem is that these doctors often focus only on their one area. A geriatrician looks at the whole picture. We make sure all treatments work together safely and effectively.
Our Compassionate Approach to Aging
\We take the time to listen. We understand that health decisions for seniors involve the whole family. We work with you to create a care plan that respects your loved one's wishes and goals. We're here to be your guide and advocate.

Frequently Asked Questions
At what age should someone see a geriatrician?
There's no set age. It's more about need than a number. If you or a loved one is managing multiple health conditions, taking several medications, or experiencing changes in memory or mobility, it's time to consider a geriatrician.
What is the difference between a geriatrician and a regular internist?
Both are internal medicine doctors. A geriatrician has additional fellowship training specifically in the unique health issues of the elderly.
Do you make house calls?
Yes, we understand that traveling to the clinic can be difficult for some seniors. We offer telemedicine and, in certain cases, can arrange for in-home visits to better serve our patients.
How do you work with other specialists?
We act as the central hub for your care. We communicate directly with your cardiologist, neurologist, and other specialists to ensure everyone is coordinated.
