Our Radiologists
Board-Certified, Fellowship-Trained Radiologists
For doctors, there is no greater feeling than being able to help improve the quality of and prolong our patients’ lives. We do this with a combination of education, training, and a dedication to helping others.
There are always new developments in the field of radiology. We stay on top of them by completing advanced coursework, reading literature, and maintaining membership in professional organizations. Nothing excites us more than a new idea – a way to care for you, the people we see every day, better than ever before.
The best doctors are the ones who care. If a patient is nervous or is anxious to see their test results, we will sit and talk to them, answer their questions, and do our best to make them feel at ease. It's the same level of care that we would want for our own family members.
