Description

You take your child to see a pediatrician, so if you’re 65 or older, why wouldn’t you see a geriatrician for your healthcare needs? If you’re an older adult or looking after a parent or loved one in this age group, you’re probably concerned about the increased risk for falls, memory problems, and multiple health issues.

These are all conditions a geriatrician can diagnose and treat.  We talk with WVU Medicine geriatrics chief Dr. Osvaldo Navia about how a geriatrician can help you age gracefully and healthfully.
