Geriatric Clinic
Care for Senior Citizens
Above the age of 60, we are likely to have multiple health issues and be on many medications all at once. Managing them all together requires expert care. Aging often brings overlapping health concerns like diabetes, high blood pressure, risk of falling down, muscle weakness, heart disease, parkinson’s, arthritis, memory, mobility and mood changes with the very real fear of losing our independence. That’s where Geriatric Care comes in.
Geriatric Care is designed to help you navigate these challenges with confidence, compassion and medical guidance that resonates with you and helps you preserve your health, movement and independence.
At P. D. Hinduja Hospital, we believe that achieving wellness in old age is just as important as eliminating illness. To help you take charge of your health, we introduce to you our Geriatric Clinic at P. D. Hinduja Hospital, where expertise meets empathy.
Geriatric Care is a specialised branch of medicine, focused on the unique healthcare needs of older adults/senior citizens. If you are 60 and above, the Geriatric Clinic is for you.
Managing your multiple health conditions and medications all together requires an expert who can give you time, not just treatment. That’s where a Geriatrician can help you.
A Geriatrician is a specialist who is trained to take a full view of how multiple age-related conditions interact with each other and with medications. They take in the complete picture of your health, ensuring that treatments meet your unique needs, lifestyle choices and goals.
