How do I know the cost of my exam?
Most health care providers have a difficult time providing cost estimates.

What role does the radiologist play in my care?
Radiologists are medical doctors who are trained in diagnosing diseases and injuries using medical imaging procedures like MRI, CT, Ultrasound, Xray and more. Radiologists complement your primary care physician or specialist, they don’t replace them. This is why coordination of care is so critical. Our radiologists work with your referring physician and are often considered an important member of your health care team. Again, it’s just smart health care.
