Osteoporosis is a silent disease.  Many people are unaware that their bones are weak, thus missing the opportunity to prevent future fractures.  Unfortunately, many times it is not until a person falls and breaks a bone that they learn they have this preventable, treatable condition.  Here at Crystal Run Healthcare, we offer screening for osteoporosis on-site.  Once osteoporosis is detected, our expert endocrinologists can determine how severe the condition is, any other health problems that are contributing to osteoporosis, and the right treatment plan for you.  Through proper detection, education, prevention and treatment, you can beat this silent disease.
