Patient Reviews
Jul 12, 2024
I have been seeing Dr. Justin Fontenot since 2008 for osteporosis. Before that, the G.P. I had been seeing for about 10 years had me on risedronate daily, and a dexa scan taken during that time showed a bone mass of -2.5 and lower - osteoporosis. I changed G.P. and she immediately sent me to Dr. Justin Fontenot, who put me on zoledronic acid. My bone mass began to increase steadily over the next few years. I was switched to denosumaab injections which I continue to take. About two years ago, I was told that my bone mass had improved to such an extent that I no longer have osteoporosis, but osteopenia. I will be forever grateful to Dr. Fontenot for his wonderful care.
