Senior Physicians
At Open MRI/Imagimed®, we have a unique combination
of senior physicians which allows us to deliver a higher level of
healthcare. Our directors are radiologists and non-radiologist specialists
in other medical specialties. This unique configuration helps us
deliver a specific diagnosis and real answers to healthcare questions
asked by your treating physician. When physicians send patients
for an MRI, they are asking questions. They do not want a non-specific
report with a long list of possibilities, because this does not
help them take care of you. What they do want are answers. At Open
MRI/Imagimed® we promise to deliver clear and understandable medical
reports which specifically answer questions asked by your physician
and provide a specific diagnosis.
We understand how busy your treating physician’s
office can be, because some of our senior physicians are, in fact,
treating physicians, not radiologists. Therefore, our practice is
designed with your treating physician’s office in mind. We
take care of the scheduling and reporting, and we do our best to
make sure that when you call your doctor’s office, the report
is already there so that the Nursing staff is not inconvenienced.
The preliminary report is faxed to your physician’s office
and the final report is both faxed and mailed. As well, as soon
as it is transcribed and within 24 hours of your study, the report
is available online on our MedWeb® system. This makes our service
unique in the medical field, and is designed to streamline your
patient care.
