General Practitioners

Osteoporosis
Primary Care
A: You can come to our office, but we are Affinity providers so you have to change your primary care physician to a Rossmoor Medical Associates physician before your appointment.
Family Practice
Electrocardiogram
An Echocardiogram is a test that uses sound waves to create a moving picture of the heart. The picture is much more detailed than an x-ray image, and involves no radiation exposure. An echocardiogram helps determine the size of the heart, how the heart valves are working, and how well the heart is pumping. A trained sonographer performs the test and a physician will interpret the results. There is no special preparation for this test. You will be asked to disrobe from the waist up and lie on an examination table on your back. Electrodes will be place on your chest so an EKG can be done. A gel will be spread on your chest and the sonographer will place the transducer, the instrument that transmits the sound waves, on your ribs near your heart. You will feel slight pressure on your chest from the transducer, and may be asked to roll to your side or change your breathing for parts of the test. The echocardiogram test should be completed within 45 minutes.

Internal Medicine
Rossmoor Medical Associates is a Primary Care Clinic dedicated to providing comprehensive quality medical care to adults and seniors. All of our physicians are Board Certified in Internal Medicine with active staff privileges at John Muir Medical Center. Our physicians have been providing quality medical services to the Rossmoor Community for over 20 years.
Gastroenterology

Neurology
All of our physicians are Participating Providers for Medicare, as well as HMO providers for HealthNet Seniority Plus United Healthcare and Secure Horizons through Affinity Medical Group. We participate with most major insurances including Aetna, Blue Cross, Blue Shield, CCN, Cigna, First Health, HealthNet and PHCS.

Endocrinologist

Hypothyroidism
There are many reasons to consider bone density measurement. We have found that although there are patients who may fit the criteria for a "high risk" profile for osteoporosis. (i.e. female, small frame, of Caucasian or Asian descent, post-menopausal decrease in estrogen, prolonged use of steroid medications, hypothyroidism, etc.) we can not always predict the outcome of the test results. The results do not always equate with what you would expect from information in the patient history. The bone densitometer is a fast and accurate approach to determine the presence of osteoporosis, or to more accurately predict who may develop the disease.

Ultrasound
MRI
Anything else? You may eat normally on the day of the exam but avoid taking calcium supplements for at least 24 hours prior to your appointment. 'You should not have a barium study, radioisotope injection or contrast injection from a CT scan or MRI within 7 days prior to your test.
X-Rays
Computed Tomography
