Services
MRI
MRI exams use powerful magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed anatomical images without ionizing radiation. Our high-field 1.5T scanners ensure superior image quality while maintaining patient comfort. Technologists provide personalized support throughout the exam, which typically lasts 45-90 minutes.
CT Scanning
CT scans capture cross-sectional body images using specialized X-rays and computer enhancements. This non-invasive procedure delivers results 30-60 minutes, offering greater sensitivity than standard X-rays for detecting internal abnormalities and injuries.
Digital Mammography
3D mammography provides layered breast tissue images for early cancer detection. The procedure takes 15-30 minutes, combining enhanced accuracy with reduced discomfort compared to traditional methods. Our technologists specialize in women's imaging protocols.
Ultrasound
Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to create real-time internal organ images without radiation exposure. Exams typically last 45-60 minutes, with specialized applications in obstetrics, cardiology, and abdominal diagnostics.
X-Ray
X-ray imaging quickly diagnoses bone fractures, chest conditions, and foreign objects using controlled radiation exposure. Most exams complete within 15-30 minutes, with immediate digital processing for rapid physician review.

After going back and forth trying to find a time over the past two months between their availability and my crazy schedule we set up an appointment for today at 3pm. (and needing to rearrange my entire day to make it here) i arrived and was told the appointment was not for today the 3rd but for next thursday the 10th at 3pm. Considering that i wrote it down verbatim with the scheduling person, and with several advanced degrees i think i can handle that and get it right.
I will not be coming back. Make sure you get everything confirmed if you plan to come here. and then confirm it again. and worse, it took asking for a supervisor before someone actually apologized to me. (also posted on Yelp)

The lobby is cool and quiet, and it is pretty to look out at the summer greenery if you have to come early to drink barium. If you do all of the online checkin beforehand, you can enjoy how pretty it is a bit more since they don't double up on paperwork at arrival The lady who did my IV had cool fashion sense + a lab coat, I was basically in a Beck song today.

Very disappointing place. We were told that we could arrive as late as 6:45pm without an appointment. Arrived at 6:45pm and they would not see my Mom. It is very difficult for her to get out and she made this trip only to be turned away. No accommodation or anything. Have your doctor send your orders somewhere else as this place is horrible to work with.

Didn't have any scheduling or administrative problems, or trouble getting an appointment. I'm here to do a scan that will check on some troubling symptoms. Tech was able to answer some basic questions that helped put my mind at ease. Overall good.

I have to go in on 12/14/19 to have both a tranvaginal and pelvic ultrasound done. I was very apprehensive because of some childhood trauma. I could not even get papsmears done because it was to painful. However, the ultrasound lady was so kind and amazing. I felt comfortable and was able to do the proceedures. My fiancee was in the room with me and she was also extremely impressed. I wish I could remember her name, but she was so kind and sweet.

If an appointment time is set then the appointment time is the set time. Don't tell me I'm 20 minutes late when I'm 5 minutes late. I understand I was late, I accept that I was late, but please have some understanding for the person who is 5 minutes late(rough traffic). I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who gets stuck in traffic here in the NorthWest.
