Eight in ten people suffer from some kind of foot ailment that affects their quality of life with many individuals having more than one foot issue.  Backus Hospital’s Dr. Mark Tramontozzi, Medical Director of Backus Wound Care and Hyperbarics, will perform free foot checks for anyone with concerns about their feet, any visible wounds, and most importantly those with diabetes.

In addition, a Backus Radiologic Technologist will provide free bone density screenings which offers fracture risk assessments that take just a few minutes.  Participants sit comfortably during the pain-free exam and the unit’s ultrasound technology emits no radiation.  Millions of Americans have low bone density or osteoporosis, a disease which causes porous and fragile bones.  Osteoporosis causes an estimated two million broken bones every year.

Please call Mike for an Appointment.
