Suggest Treatment For Osteoporosis

How should I choose a doctor who specializes in osteoporosis or check with my family or orthopedic doctor. Every time I fall I break something. My last fall I broke both legs and right hip. They did hip replacement and told me I had osteoporosis without doing the test, which I agree. They had hard time with knee surgery had to rebuild area so how do I choose the right doctor and what should I expect?
