Vertebral
Fracture Assessment
A very simple test to evaluate the spine by performing an x-ray
of the spine to check for spinal fractures. If present, this could
explain back pain, bent-over stature or “shrinking”
of height. This test is usually obtained at the same time as a
DEXA scan.
Both Dr. Glazer and Ms. Schaeffer are certified by the ISCD (International
Society for Clinical Densitometry).
Essure
Sterilization
Dr. Glazer is the first doctor in the state of Kentucky to perform
the Essure sterilization technique in which a metal spring containing
a filament is inserted into the fallopian tube, which over a three-month
period of time causes closure of the tube thus preventing future
pregnancy. Please call for an appointment to see if Essure sterilization
is appropriate for you.
Labial
Reduction
Some women have discomfort due to the lips of the vagina being
