What Our Patients Say About PRP
You never go to a place like this for a good time but at least when you come here you are met by really friendly front office staff who immediately put you at ease. The rest of the staff are so friendly, competent and know exactly what they’re doing. It was a completely faultless experience right down to the girl at the front desk offering to call me a cab to get home. I can’t think of anything negative to say at all.
How to Prepare for Your Medical Imaging Appointment
If you’ve never received an Ultrasound, CT scan, MRI, X-ray, or other type of medical scan, you may have some questions before your appointment at PRP Diagnostic Imaging.
What To Bring
- Referral
- Medicare Card
- Payment
- List of current medications
- Recent previous imaging done elsewhere
- Support person (if needed)
