Geriatrics at a Glance
1. Multimorbidity
Many older adults suffer from multiple chronic conditions (e.g., diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, arthritis), which complicates treatment. Geriatricians must therefore adopt a holistic perspective and develop treatment plans that take into account the management of several diseases simultaneously.
2. Polypharmacy
The use of multiple medications is common among older patients, which increases the risk of interactions and side effects. Geriatricians specialize in optimizing medication plans and reducing unnecessary medications.
3. Fragility
A state of reduced physical & mental reserves that increases the risk of falls, hospital admissions, and dependence on care. Our experienced geriatricians offer the full spectrum of primary care & geriatrics. The examination is conducted with modern equipment & the subsequent consultation & treatment is tailored to your individual needs.
