A Geriatrician most often treats people over the age of 60 who are either healthy or have multiple medical issues. Medical care becomes more complex as you age and encounter more medical conditions. A Geriatrician is an expert in how medical conditions impact one another, in how each medication interacts with others and how both medical conditions and medications uniquely affect you as you age.
