These professionals here are top notch, from
The receptionist to the staff performing your scans.
I am extremely claustrophobic, which has greatly affected my life to the point where I had had MRI scans many years ago that completely left me scared to death to have any more in the future, even with taking Valium to get through the procedure!
I heard about a new MRI machine called a "wide bore" that was several inches wider inside and a bit shorter in length to the traditional MRI machines I've been in the past, and that this particular location had one, I just had to wait a few weeks for an appointment.
Well, I made my appointments to get two scans done here on two different days with the new machine, and I have to tell you, they made the experience so easy and comfortable, knowing my situation, that I will never fear getting an MRI again, as long as I have one done in one of these new machines! The entire experience was hands down easier and more thought out than any other MRI in where they do everything in their ability to keep you calm, comfortable and at peace, especially if you suffer from claustrophobia and the "fight or flight" panic being in an enclosed situation. Granted, I took some meds my doctor gave me to aid in the relaxation of my visit, but in the past, that didn't really help, and attribute the new machine and the professionals here who really cared so well for me.
I'm so thankful to them and for Dignity Health for this option of MRI for us who can't fathom getting into a regular machine! They even let my husband accompany me on my last scan to make me feel even
Comforted! Thank you, Dignity Health! read more
