You are here: Home / Archive / Feature Stories / “We Live In An Ageist Society”: How To Enjoy Old Age
Published: July 23, 2023 by RHJ Producer

Everyone ages, so why are so many of us not prepared to grow old? Dr. Rosanne Leipzig, a gerontologist, says most of her patients don’t know what changes to expect in their old age – and often fight against the inevitable transition. She explains what’s normal, what’s not, and how to enjoy your later years in life.

  • Dr. Rosanne Leipzig, Professor and Vice Chair, Education of the Brookdale Department of Geriatrics and Palliative Medicine, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, Author, Honest Aging
