Orthopaedic Hospital of Los Angeles, California is pleased to offer $49 Osteoporosis “DEXA” Screenings for celiac patients.
Orthopaedic Hospital is offering its Osteoporosis (DEXA) screenings at a reduced cost of $49 for patients who have been diagnosed with celiac disease.
Currently over 25 million American, mostly women, suffer from this crippling, bone thinning disease that usually results in a variety of fractures. If you have celiac disease, your risk for osteoporosis increases. Take advantage of this opportunity to find out the health of your bones.
The time could not be better for you to receive a state of the art Osteoporosis “DEXA” Bone Density screening that is considered the best technique available (gold standard). This painless X-ray procedure scans both the hip and spine, and takes less than a half hour.
With over 1.5 million bone fractures in the United States each year attributed to osteoporosis, there could not be a more opportune time for you to schedule a visit to Orthopaedic Hospital’s Radiology Department for your screening.

Orthopaedic Hospital is located at 2400 South Flower Street, Los Angeles. Parking lot entrance is on 23rd Street. Weekend appointments are available.
