Steven C. Fulop, M.D., MBA, FAANS, recently joined the Genesis Neurosurgery Group, specializing in neurosurgery.

Dr. Fulop’s interest in science and its applications prompted him to consider medicine as a career. During medical school he took an interest in neuroscience. He said he favored surgery because he was a college athlete and enjoyed the performance and pressure.

He performs spinal procedures including arthroplasty, thoracic and lumbar decompression and minimally invasive (MIS) procedures.

Dr. Fulop is a native of Cleveland, Ohio, and attended college at Ohio Wesleyan in Delaware, Ohio. His family lives in Cleveland and Columbus. Currently a Lt. Col. in the U.S. Army Reserves, when he was on active duty in Iraq he met a Genesis physician who encouraged him to consider a career at Genesis. Dr. Fulop says he is looking forward to “providing excellent care to patients with neurosurgical issues.”  

Dr. Fulop said that because he has to stay in shape for the Reserves, he spends a lot of time exercising, which he enjoys. A Cleveland Browns and Ohio State Buckeyes fan, he also likes to fish, watch movies and play video games that improve coordination and problem-solving skills.  

Dr. Fulop’s office is located at the Genesis Neuroscience Center at 955 Bethesda Drive, Garden Level, in Zanesville. His phone number is 740-586-6828. He is accepting new patients by physician referral.

Steven C. Fulop, M.D., MBA, FAANS, recently joined the Genesis Neurosurgery Group, specializing in neurosurgery.

After more than 24 years of a successful private practice, Walter Randolph, M.D., MS, joined Genesis Women’s Health Specialists, serving the Coshocton area. When he was considering a change, Dr. Randolph said he wanted to join a system with a strong focus on patients and communities. “As soon as I started talking with the people here, I knew I was making the right choice,” he said. “I have always worked to educate patients about their conditions, so they understand what is happening and why I do certain things to help. That happens best in this type of practice.”  

A fourth-generation physician, Dr. Randolph said he initially pursued a career in the sciences, but “God always led me back to medicine.” He considered other specialties but chose obstetrics and gynecology because it is a combination of clinical and surgical medicine. It also allowed him to see a variety of patients for a long period of their lives.

Dr. Randolph is also looking forward to the use of the new surgical suites in Coshocton. “The facility has all the technology to best serve our patients,” he said.

Dr. Randolph, his wife and family like hiking, boating, birdwatching and spending time outdoors. “I enjoy fresh air and open spaces.”  

Dr. Randolph’s office is at 1417 Kaderly St. NW in New Philadelphia. His phone number is 330-602-5678. He is accepting new patients.

What matters most

In the last 18 months, Genesis has continued to invest in the latest technology, equipment and facilities. We have updated and doubled our robotic-assisted surgery equipment, implemented additional best-of-class software, opened the Genesis Coshocton Medical Center and expanded our primary care and specialty physician offices.  

All amazing accomplishments.

If asked to pick our most significant achievement, my answer will always be the same. Building and supporting an outstanding team of caregivers. Your neighbors, friends and family members make Genesis what we are, a top 50 heart hospital in the nation and a healthcare system nationally recognized for our high quality, compassionate care.

We are grateful that we can provide our team with innovative technology and modern facilities to perform at their highest levels. However, the skill of our dedicated team members is and always will be the most valuable part of Genesis.

Building the team

While we have been busy building over the last year and a half, we have also added many new physicians. Join us in welcoming five more physicians who are highlighted on the following pages.

Our patients

As always, we highlight some of our recent patients within LiveWell. For the first time in this publication, we also provide a check-up on previous patients to learn how they are doing years after their life-threatening health scares.

Thank you for supporting Genesis and our team.

Osteoporosis is a skeletal disorder that occurs when a body loses too much bone or doesn’t make enough bone. Bone tissue deteriorates, leading to an increased risk of fracture. The Bone Health and Osteoporosis Foundation states that 54 million Americans have osteoporosis, most of them elderly. 

Osteoporosis is often called a “silent” disease since the first symptom is often a broken bone. However, if you experience any of the following, share your concerns with your primary provider. They may refer you to a orthopedic physician. 

Symptoms 

• Sloping shoulders 
• Curvature of the back 
• Height loss 
• Back pain 

Testing 

Osteoporosis is confirmed with a bone density test. The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommends that women aged 65 and older and postmenopausal women with an increased risk of osteoporosis have a bone density test. A conversation with your doctor will help you decide when to have the testing done. 

Thankfully, the test is painless. It’s like having an X-ray. The test will measure your bone density and compare it to the bones of an average, healthy adult. Your result is called a T-score. The T-score will let your doctor know whether you have healthy bones, osteoporosis or osteopenia, which is low bone density, but not as severe as osteoporosis. 

Treatment 

Based on your T-score, your doctor may propose a treatment plan. 

• Possibly prescribe medications to build bone mass and prevent bone loss. 
• Increase your calcium. 
• Make sure you are getting enough vitamin D. 
• Encourage physical activity. 

The same things your doctor recommends for treatment are also ways to prevent osteoporosis. 

Prevention 

• Maintain a healthy weight. 
• Eat foods that support bone health, like calcium, vitamin D and protein. 
• Choose more low-impact activities like walking, swimming and biking over high-impact activities. 
• Cut back on smoking and drinking. Chronic use of both is proven to weaken bones. 

Talk to your primary care physician about the best ways to avoid this disease.
