How we verify every member story on this site.

The four-part verification standard

1. Member consent, on the record.

No member story is published without the member's explicit publish-approved consent. That means either:

• A signed release authorizing OsteoStrong Austin & Georgetown to share her findings and identifying details, or
• A recorded video testimonial captured at one of our centers, where she speaks directly to the camera about her own result and explicitly invites others to learn from her experience, or
• A whiteboard photograph she initialed in the presence of staff, with an accompanying quote she approved for publication.

We will remove any story, at any time, at a member's request — no reasons required.

2. Source of record for every number.

Every number on this site — every percent improvement, every FRAX score, every grip reading — comes from one of three named sources:

1. On-camera testimonials. Recorded at our centers, transcribed with Whisper, and preserved as WebVTT captions with the video on file. The member speaks the number in her own words.
2. Member-initialed DEXA whiteboards. A photograph of the member-initialed summary board at our Austin or Georgetown centers, transcribed into testimonials.json and linked to the member's consent record.
3. Direct member confirmation. Where a number is member-confirmed outside a video or whiteboard (for example, a member walking a coach through her own DEXA report in person), the case study marks it member-confirmed on the findings card.

3. Baseline, follow-up, and interval — always together.

Bone density is a slow conversation with your skeleton. A percentage on its own says nothing. Every case study on this site reports the finding as three numbers, not one:

• Baseline: The reading the member came in with.
• Follow-up: The reading on the most recent DEXA or test of record.
• Interval: The elapsed time between them, measured in months or years.

If any of the three is missing, the finding is not published as a case study. We may still mention the member's story on a broader list (/results/, /member-outcomes/), but not as a case study.

4. A claims policy we do not break.

Member stories are powerful precisely because they are specific. That specificity is also easy to abuse. Our claims policy names the line we never cross.

What you will see on our pages:

• Reported findings ("her spine DEXA improved by 12.8%") attributed to a named, consenting member with a source of record.
• Explicit disclosures that individual results are not typical and not guaranteed.
• Positioning of OsteoStrong as a non-drug, complementary option that pairs with your physician's plan.

What you will not see on our pages:

• Promises of a specific bone density gain in any specific timeframe.
• Claims that OsteoStrong treats, cures, prevents, or replaces medication for any disease.
• Raw DEXA reports, PACS imagery, or any protected health information.
• AI-fabricated testimonials. AI-generated member photography. Stock-photo members.
• Review schema applied to our own site claiming star ratings for ourselves — we only reference the reviews real members leave on independent platforms.

What we do not publish, and why.

Raw DEXA images and PACS reports.

A DEXA printout is protected health information. It may also contain identifying details unrelated to a member's bone density (birth date, medical record numbers, technician notes). We never publish the raw image, the original PDF, or any PHI. We report the finding as a number, in the member's own words or on a member-initialed whiteboard, with her consent.

Specific medical advice.

We do not tell a woman to start, stop, or change her osteoporosis medication. We do not diagnose. We do not treat. OsteoStrong is a non-drug, complementary option that pairs with a physician's care plan. Decisions about prescriptions, surgeries, and other medical interventions belong between a woman and her doctor.

Stories we cannot verify.

If a member tells us her number but we do not have a source of record (transcript, whiteboard, or member-confirmed DEXA), we do not publish it as a case study. Her story may still be welcome on a broader list, but the case study tier is reserved for fully verified narratives.

Who reviews these pages.

OsteoStrong Austin & Georgetown is actively recruiting a named, licensed clinician to serve as our Medical Advisory Reviewer. Until that reviewer is in place, every case study is reviewed against the standard above by OsteoStrong staff before publication.

Once the Medical Advisory Reviewer is announced, every page on this site that reports a medical finding will carry:

• A Medically reviewed by stamp with the reviewer's name, credentials, and license identifier.
• A Last reviewed date that refreshes on every significant update.
• A link to the reviewer's bio page on this site.

This page, like every case study, will be updated on the day that reviewer is announced.

How to request a correction or removal.

If you are one of the women represented on this site and you want your story updated, a number refined, or your case study removed entirely — email us at info@osteostrongatx.com or call 512-456-9102. We will act the same day.

Why we wrote this page.

We work in a category where it is easy to get away with vague promises, dramatic before-and-after photos, and fabricated testimonials. We are not interested in those tactics. The women who work with us at OsteoStrong Austin and Georgetown have worked hard for every number on their DEXA, and our job is to represent those numbers honestly — in a way a physician, a daughter, or a patient advocate could read and not wince.

If you ever find a number on this site that is not backed by the standard above, email us. We will fix it.
