Geriatricians are doctors who specialize in the medical care of patients over the age of 65. At Reliant Medical Group, our geriatricians work inside nursing homes (also known as skilled nursing facilities) helping to provide care for our older patients. Geriatricians are experts at dealing with arthritis, osteoporosis, mobility issues, memory loss and other problems that can affect the elderly. They can also help seniors deal with the social and emotional effects of aging.
All our geriatricians have completed a residency in either Internal Medicine or Family Medicine with additional fellowship training in Geriatrics. As the population ages, caring for older adults is becoming increasingly important. At Reliant Medical Group, our geriatricians approach each patient’s needs individually, and possess the knowledge, skills and expertise needed to provide great care for our senior patients.
