Conditions treated

Specialist care for osteoporosis, bone health and metabolic bone disease

Professor Richard Keen provides specialist assessment and treatment planning for osteoporosis, metabolic bone disease, rare bone disorders, vitamin D deficiency and fractures linked to reduced bone strength.

Conditions affecting bone strength and fracture risk

These conditions may involve low bone density, abnormal bone turnover, mineral imbalance, inherited bone disorders, rare skeletal conditions or fractures that suggest underlying bone weakness.

  • Osteoporosis and pregnancy-related osteoporosis
  • Metabolic bone disease and rare inherited bone disorders
  • Vitamin D, calcium, phosphate and parathyroid-related conditions
  • Fragility fractures, spine fractures and hip fractures
Overview

Conditions affecting bone strength, mineral balance and skeletal health

Bone health can be affected by osteoporosis, hormone changes, mineral imbalance, vitamin D deficiency, inherited conditions, rare bone disorders and previous fractures. These conditions often need careful interpretation of symptoms, scans, blood tests, fracture history and wider medical context.
