A geriatrician is a doctor who specialises in evaluating, diagnosing and treating medical conditions and diseases that affect people in the elderly age group.
A geriatric medical doctor near you would have trained for 5 1/2 years in MBBS, followed by 3 years of training as an MD/DNB in General Medicine. Additional fellowships or certifications in geriatric medicine or other specialties may be done.
The consultation fees of a geriatric physician nearby would range between Rs 300-Rs800, and would depend on their professional experience and location of practice
During a consultation with a geriatric physician, the doctor would at first inquire about the symptoms and problems being faced, and take a complete medical history, and examine reports of previous investigations if any. This would be followed by a physical examination to assess the overall health as well as the underlying cause of the problem. Additional investigations if required, and medications for treatment would be prescribed based on the diagnosis. A long term management plan may also be discussed.
According to the best geriatricians in Hyderabad, it is advisable for individuals in the geriatric age group to have a medical consultation once every 6 months, to review health concerns and medications, and lifestyle changes. More frequent visits may be required if chronic health problems are present.
According to the best geriatric medical doctors, individuals in the elderly age group have complaints of hearing loss, vision problems, balance problems, breathing difficulties, joint pains, bowel and bladder troubles, loss of appetite, etc.
Some common conditions seen by the best geriatric physicians in Hyderabad include heart disease, digestive disorders, constipation, urinary incontinence, arthritis, memory loss and other mental health disorders, breathing trouble, diabetes, high blood pressure, etc.
Some investigations that are advised by geriatricians include blood tests including liver and renal function tests, urine tests, ECG, Echocardiogram, CT scans, and MRI scans.
Geriatric physicians do not treat cancers instead refer them to oncologists who specialise in their treatment. Geriatricians may provide supportive or palliative care for elderly individuals if they are diagnosed with cancer.
