Dr. Iraj Sabahi’s practice focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of arthritis, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, and autoimmune diseases. He is committed to providing the best possible care using advanced technology and the latest therapies.
We provide infusion therapy for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis, and systemic lupus erythematosus. Medications include Remicade, Orencia, Actemra, Benlysta, Reclas, Cimzia, nd Prolia.
If you are scheduled for Intravenous Infusion Treatment, you are going to be seen by physician and infusion nurse. You must be present 10-15 minutes before your appointment and may be required to stay 30 minutes up to 60 minutes after the treatment. The time needed for your infusion will depend on the medication.
Times will range between one hour for most medications and up to 3 hours for others. If you need premedication for your infusion, and if this is your first infusion session, please bring a family member or friend with you.
A bone density scan is recommended for individuals who may be at risk of osteoporosis or bone loss. Women over the age of 65 and men over 70 should consider getting tested, as bone density naturally decreases with age. Additionally, those with a history of fractures, long-term steroid use, or a family history of osteoporosis are at a higher risk. If you have conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, thyroid disorders, or low body weight, a scan can help assess your bone health and prevent future complications.
Avoid supplements 24 hours before the scan.
Wear loose clothes, avoid metal zippers/buttons.
Inform your doctor about X-rays or contrast dye.
Quick, painless, and no special preparation.
