Information

Our radiology department has installed state of the art Digital Radiology equipment that is capable of immediate acquisition of all images taken, meaning that the images are immediately available for viewing on a computer screen. This eliminates the need for x-ray film. Your physician can immediately access your images through our specialized Radiology Web Browser. In the event that you would need to take images to an outside provider, we can provide these to you through films or cd. By providing our patients with a fully digital department, we have significantly improved our customer service. We have decreased wait times as a result of more efficient workflow, and more importantly, because of these new efficiencies, we have more time to directly address the needs of you, the patient.
