InHealth Imaging

I have never raved about a mammogram before. Who would? Well, you — if you go to InHealth Imaging.
When I called to make the appointment, since I was new to the area, they asked where my last mammo was. I told them the name of the facility and the town, that’s it. When I checked in for my mammo, they took me back immediately. The tech showed me the gown to put on, which was sitting on a chair, on top of which was a small, adorable, silver and white box with a pink ribbon. She said, «And, that’s for you.» OK, I admit it. They had me at the chocolate truffles, but there’s more…
I’d never even given a thought to hospital gowns before, but this was not the usual, flimsy deal. It was soft and substantial. They do 3D mammography, which was a first for me, as well. It definitely does not hurt as much. The tech was very professional and I was very pleased with the whole process, but wait, there’s more…
She said, «If you’d like to get dressed and then wait 10 minutes, the radiologist will go over your mammogram with you, and you can get the result right away.» Did I just hear that correctly? Do I also need an audiologist? But, no. Ten minutes later, I was taken back to see the radiologist. He had my old mammo from the other facility in the other state up on his screen with the one just taken next to it. He explained what he was seeing, any changes and answered all of my questions. When I commented that I’d never had a 3D mammo before, he said he was the first one on the West Coast to have it.
Sold! (And the truffles were really good, too.)

Not only was I able to get an appointment that fit my time frame, I was in and out within 35 minutes, including the time it took to fill out minimal paperwork and have Dr. Henne personally review the 3-​D scan with me. He explained what the tiny white specks were. I’ve NEVER received ANY explanation of the scan in the 20+ years I’ve had mammograms! In addition, it was the least painful/​uncomfortable one I’ve ever had! It was faster and I had my own room (same as the machine), so no waiting with a bunch of other women like a herd of cattle. Very personal, professional, and friendly. I won’t postpone it for 3 years again as it was a breeze!!!

My wife had some XR’s done today and she had several complaints and will definitely try to avoid in the future. The staff was not professional, there was an hour and a half wait and the XR tech needed instruction from a coworker due to inexperience that ended up causing one image to need to be repeated. There was also an inexperienced computer operator at the front desk.
