Osteoporosis Assessment and Management

Bone health care at Top Health Doctors Brisbane

At Top Health Doctors, our GPs provide assessment and ongoing management for osteoporosis, with a focus on bone health and reducing fracture risk.

Individual care for your bone health

Your doctor will review your medical history, previous fractures, current treatment and relevant investigations, including bone density scans and blood tests.

Together, we can discuss management options suited to your circumstances, including their potential benefits, risks and costs. Your care plan may also include advice on nutrition, physical activity and falls prevention.

Many of our doctors, medical specialists or patients choose therapeutic anti-resorptive infusion using as the preferred treatment for osteoporosis. The infusion usually only needs to be done once a year (but can be varied by your specialists).

These infusion works by slowing down bone resorption, which allows the bone- forming cells time to rebuild normal bone. This allows bone remodeling to go back to normal and protects the bones from being weakened.
