‘Dedicated to the Prevention & Treatment of Osteoporosis’

The PARS Osteoporosis Clinic provides the highest standard of personalized care achievable, based upon current scientific knowledge, for patients with Osteoporosis, or those at high risk for the disease.  The Clinic is dedicated to:

* Providing comprehensive evaluation and treatments, including lifestyle and nutritional counseling focused on prevention and treatment of Osteoporosis and low bone mass/Osteopenia.

* Technical and clinical excellence in the field of bone mass measurement testing.

Osteoporosis is a thinning of bone tissue and loss of bone density over time.  A misconception regarding Osteoporosis is that the disease is an inevitable aspect of aging; this is not the case, as Osteoporosis is both preventable and treatable.  There are many treatment options available and treatment plans are customized for each individual patient.

Early detection of low bone density before a fracture occurs is key to successful management of Osteoporosis.   To evaluate individual risk for the disease, the PARS Osteoporosis Clinic offers onsite bone mass density testing (Dual energy X-ray Absorptiometry-axial and peripheral).   

Clinic Director, Cindy Smith, is certified by the International Society for Clinical Densitometry (ISCD) to conduct bone mass density testing, and is qualified to interpret DXA scan results and recommend solutions to minimize onset and progression of the disease.
