Breast Imaging
Our Breast Imaging services utilize advanced technologies like 3D mammography and MRI to detect abnormalities with precision. We offer diagnostic and screening tests, biopsies, and cyst aspirations tailored to individual patient needs. Our ACR-accredited centers ensure high-quality care for early detection of breast conditions.
MRI
Our high-speed MRI machines capture detailed images for accurate diagnoses in less time. Specialized applications include neuro MRI, cardiac MRI, and musculoskeletal imaging, enabling comprehensive evaluation of soft tissues, organs, and neurological structures without radiation exposure.
Low-Dose CT
Our low-dose CT scans use advanced X-ray technology to produce cross-sectional images while minimizing radiation exposure. This service is ideal for detecting lung cancer, cardiovascular issues, and abdominal or pelvic abnormalities with enhanced clarity and safety.
Vascular & Interventional
These outpatient procedures combine imaging and minimally invasive techniques to diagnose and treat vascular conditions. Services include angioplasty, stenting, and embolization, offering alternatives to traditional surgery with faster recovery times.
Pediatric Imaging
Tailored imaging services for children use adjusted radiation doses and child-friendly protocols. We offer X-rays, ultrasounds, and MRIs designed to ensure safety and comfort while providing critical diagnostic information for pediatric patients.

This place is horrible. The customer service is nonexistent, they are all lazy and my X-ray was supposed to be for broken ribs and they took an X-ray of my lungs instead. I won't be back. deuces

Amazing experience with great professionals! First time seeing a receptionist that went out of her way to help an elderly gentleman look for another radiology that accepted his insurance.

I don't usually post, but with all these negative ones I can just say I've been there twice this year for X-Rays which is a straight walk in service. My waits were 10 and 20 min total. Received email for the balance bill, had no issues at all. Needed CD for doc and first time they had it for me next day (because I forgot to ask in advance), second time I walked out with image disc in hand. Tech was very friendly.

I went into this radiology center having read the reviews posted even as recent as two weeks ago from the time that I'm writing this review and was genuinely surprised how it seemed to have gone the complete opposite direction of their experiences. I spent probably 20 minutes in the waiting room because it was relatively busy and I was a new patient, but once I got my x-rays taken, it took very little time.
I left my apartment about 8:05am, arrived at 8:20am, and was out about 8:55am. Very straightforward and to the point from the receptionists and the radiologists on staff. Maybe things could be handled a little less hectically (emphasis on "little"), but hey, everyone in the building works with health in some way during a global pandemic and they're handling it incredibly responsibly and to the point where it was barely a concern to think about.
I am not opposed for any reason to not come back here. The only reason I wouldn't highly recommend it is because I'm not sure how much of a frequent flyer I'd be there to give a fully fairly balanced reviewer. Here's hoping I stay healthy!

I have never used the Radiologist services and the next thing I am getting collection calls and a stiff bill for over $600. After trying to make sense, I was able to get thru to the billing team which after 43 minutes on hold they told me that it was mistake. I asked for her name or extension and she refused to provide any information. I called them back and asked who is going to stop the harassment calls from the debt collector for a debt that never excited? She told me that is on the works to be fixed. I never heard of anything like this, be aware patients this is for sure Fraud!
