I just came here to today 2/26/26 to have a CT scan. From the moment I walked in the ladies behind…read morethe desk were super nice and welcoming. However Maddy my technician who did my CT scan was the absolute best. I've never had such a professional, kind, supportive, informative lab technician who does CTs before. She even got me warm blankets because I'm always so cold. When it was done she helped me up and told me that my Dr will have the results back STAT. She made me feel comfortable and is phenomenal at her job. I sincerely hope that Maddy will be recognized and get the registration that she deserves. If there were more stars to give I'd give them all. That's how comfortable and kind she made me feel in a not so comfortable time.

Today when I went in for my MRI, the check-in process was very quick and easy, and I was seated…read morecomfortably. However, when the MRI technician came to take me into the room and set up the machine, she seemed very careless and not very attentive. She briefly asked what kind of music I wanted, then closed the door and left. I asked how long the procedure would take, and I was told fifteen minutes. Once it started, the noise from the machine was extremely loud and suddenly caused me to develop a headache. I simply endured it for the full fifteen minutes. When it was finished and another staff member came in to open the machine and help me out, I mentioned what happened. He told me that next time I should ask for earplugs. I responded that I hope there won't be a next time soon, as this is not something I experience regularly. In my opinion, patients should be reminded in advance that the noise can be very loud and that ear protection is available. This discomfort could easily be prevented. I feel the staff need to be a bit more attentive and considerate, rather than just treating it as a routine task and moving on. Patients deserve more care and awareness.

I'm sorry to see so many negative reviews, because my experience was different. I reached out to…read morethe location directly and did not use the central call system. That may be one reason that I did not have the frustration that other reviewers had. This location may havehad a change in Management because the difficult people I used to encounter there at the front desk are no longer a problem, I am delighted to say. Perhaps they have just had better training or read enough yelp reviews to let them know that people were not thrilled With that part of the experience. However, ALL the people I encountered here in December, 2025 were warm and welcoming, and they answered all the pesky questions I have. I know they're busy, but they really went out of their way to help me. That was awesome. The supervisor (lead) ADRIANA was absolutely terrific, as she made sure that all my questions were addressed and she explained the items on the check-in form that I had questions about. She really went the extra mile! Truly exceptional. I was really impressed. Thank you Adriana! At the front desk, ARIANNA was delightful and welcoming, patient and helpful. That's really important for a front desk person to be, when the patient is having a procedure like an MRI or a CT. Well done! She was wonderful. KIM, the technician was terrific, and actually a lot of fun, which made me relax for my MRI. She is a seasoned pro and made everything run smoothly. I was so grateful for that! Impressive. All in all there is NOW a terrific team in this location at 3300 West Coast Highway, Newport Beach. There has been much improvement since I was there last in 2019. Also, of course, the beautiful appearance of the place, like a spa, helps greatly to provide a soothing atmosphere. So yes, I absolutely recommend this WAVE Location. It's also a nice short walk from the parking lot which counts when you are suffering. One thing to remember: they DO offer what is called an "open MRI" which can accommodate bigger or more claustrophobic people. However, it does not mean there is a ton of room above your face, I was surprised to find out. I think THAT particular type of machine is called a "Wide Bore" and I do not know if this parent company has that kind of machine anywhere near me. So it was still fairly claustrophobic for me,although not as much as if it were not "an open MRI". Kim did an impressive job of making me as comfortable as possible. I do think that this is a very good and well run facility and that hopefully people who discover it will see how earnest the people at this location are. (I did receive a call from the general call center trying to book my appointment, but I could barely understand the gentleman. Seems like that may need some attention from this company.)

The slowest receptionist I've ever experienced in my life. Literally took 30 minutes just to get me…read morechecked in and they charged me the wrong thing, didn't order the right x-rays so if the x ray technician didn't catch it would've been missed. Next receptionist had nothing but attitude. Really go anywhere else.

Amazing experience from beginning to the end…read more Need an affordable MRI quick to diagnose unexplained problem. You will almost certainly never get it from your insurance company or will have to wait weeks while referral back and forth. HTC imaging just solve this whole issue. The pricing is very affordable with the amount of scan and result that you got. The peace of mind after the thorough scan of your body is priceless. Appointment was easily made. The great owner Sean was able to put me in in 2 days. And he was so caring and personally assuring throughout the whole process. Identifying possible problems right after. The MRI experience is not as scary as I thought. He assured me in every process and you are not going to stuck inside for hours. He let you came out and back in periodically. The ultrasound process is as amazing as the MRI. This is not the first time I did ultrasound. But he knows exactly where and what to look for and show me exactly what my body is doing at the same time. We got a short consultation right after the scan and a detailed board certified report a few days later. Also, all imaging will be given to you in a flash drive. Amazing service. The only thing is it's a little hard to look for. Remember you are looking for a trailer in a parking marked with Siemens. (See my picture). It's next to the medical building. Will recommend this to anyone who need a comprehensive scan and care for your own body more than your insurance company

3 stars I had an MRI…read moredone here and overall the experience itself was actually pretty good. The technician was very professional, friendly, and made the process quick and easy. Pricing was also very affordable compared to a lot of other imaging centers, which I appreciated. The only downside was the image quality. When I later went in for surgery, my doctor mentioned that the MRI imaging quality was not very good, which makes me think they may be using an older machine or older equipment. That said, the staff experience was excellent and the gentleman helping me was extremely kind and professional. If you're looking for a lower-cost MRI option and a smooth experience, this place works well. But if you specifically need the highest-quality imaging for something serious or surgical, you may want to consider a facility with newer equipment.

Dr. Patel is not only the best physician in the area of Vascular and Interventional Radiology, but he also communicates effectively with his patients and their families. That is a rare combination. All three of my adult children were present in my hospital room. They had rushed to be with me, and they were scared. I was scared too because risk was high. When Dr. Patel visited me in my room, he was calm and demonstrated with his bedside manner that he truly cares about his patients and their families. His communication skills cannot easily be explained with words. He was precise in explaining the risks, but at the same time confident in guiding my decision-making process. I am grateful to Dr. Patel. I have not felt better in years. I highly recommend Dr. Patel because he is very skilled and also because he cares. Dr. Patel is a remarkable physician and a good man.
