It’s estimated that about 1 in 5 American women over the age of 50 have osteoporosis.  About half of all women over the age of 50 will have a fracture of the hip, wrist or vertebra (bones of the spine).  Dr. Picerno will present the latest information and research about Osteoporosis and answer your questions.

Dr. Picerno is a board certified orthopaedic surgeon and a fellow of the AAOS. He completed his orthopaedic residency at the University of Florida, Health Science Center in Jacksonville where he served as chief resident and was the recipient of the Luis S. Russo award for professionalism in Medicine.
