Frequently Asked Questions

When should someone see a geriatric specialist?

A geriatric specialist is particularly helpful when an older adult manages multiple chronic conditions, takes many medications, has experienced recent falls or memory changes, faces a major health decision such as surgery, or when primary care feels stretched across too many issues to address thoroughly.

Can a geriatric specialist help with dementia or memory concerns?

Yes — geriatricians are trained to evaluate cognitive changes, distinguish normal aging from early dementia, coordinate care for diagnosed conditions such as Alzheimer's disease, and help families with planning conversations. Each OpenMyPro profile lists the specialist's focus areas.

Can I book a geriatric specialist for a family member?

Yes — many families book on behalf of an elderly parent or relative. Compare geriatric specialists on OpenMyPro and book a consultation online.
