REMS location in California?

I had two sacral insufficiency fractures which led to a DEXA and DX of severe osteoporosis especially in my lumbar spine. I haven't had any falls and am not a fall risk. Looking for answers (non-medication if possible), and hope to find where I can have a REMS for a more accurate picture of my lumbar spine bone health.

I don't know about Rems in Calif. but found this Echolight / Rems manufacturer office in NY, maybe they can tell who has purchased and where they are located.

Seems like most are east of Calif. Since it is fairly new to the U.S., I don't think they are widely available everywhere.

I am in the LA area and still have not been able to get my REMS here, I have to do mine in Dallas it’s the closest I have found but worth the trip when we are there.

You can find all sorts of information on Dr Doug Lucas You Tube channel, he is very informative

This practice is listed on the Juvent echolight manufacturer website. You can google it to find the contact info.

I'm not sure if flying to the Wosler Diagnostic Clinic in Calgary Alberta Canada would be cheaper for your than flying to Eastern States. Wosler Clinic REMS Echolight costs $150.00 CA. I flew from Vancouver, BC which was well worth it.
