The quote came back from St. Lukes for $1856.00 with insurance covering $45.00 I emailed and called St. Lukes to cancel. For that amount I could fly to France and have a CT scan done for free as I am citizen. I told all of this to Treasure Valley Urology and they recommended Telllica Imaging on Overland. It took a bit to get the appointment schedule and its because their phones are ringing off the hook - the secret is out so speak So, be patient but they will get back to you and they are working on improving the phone lines. I paid $350 upfront and was called back by Amy. She was so nice and personable. We chatted the all time. It made me feel so relaxed. The process was easy and painless. Amy was a rockstar. Explained every step along the way and made sure that I understood and was okay. I was done in about an hour maybe a little less. The results came fast. About three hours later Yes. Im good. Whew. I'll be around for more checkins and writing more reviews. I highly recommend checking out Tellica if you a). Cant deal with the bureaucracy and b). Cant afford it or your insurance doesn't cover it.

This review is specifically for Dr. Bridges. She's awesome!…read more It's so nice be listened to, heard and given the courtesy of direct and clear replies to questions. Spine surgery is a big deal. I've had two consults before where the doctors pretty much said "here's what you need" and then just expected me to do it without questions, research and serious consideration. Dr. Bridges is the opposite. She flat-out said high risk, gave me real numbers on complication rates, discussed options even if it wasn't in her wheelhouse and referred me to someone who specializes in an option I want to explore. No detectable ego which makes her more credible in my eyes. I'm well aware weight is always a factor in surgeries and since my colon resection and the unexpected consequence of the high carb post op diet, I'm all too aware of my current size. i don't sugar coat it. She doesn't sugar coat it. Need to keep this stuff real. She wasn't rude, just matter of fact. I really appreciate that. Quick digression: She told me that because I would be face-down during surgery and I've got a bigger belly than usual, that pushes all the blood up towards the spine and can make me bleed more. I hadn't even thought about that. Only airway and anesthesia. Makes sense but I never even thought of it. So, I left with an X-ray order for both hips since my recent trip to the ER it's unclear if I had severe hip pain because there's something wrong with my hip or if it's an extension of the spine problem. (duh, wonder why ER didn't do that?) Also got referral to a doctor who specializes in an option that I researched to see if it's even viable for my injury AND a referral to Salt Lake because they have more advanced equipment to handle how complicated this is and I might need to go out of town. If I have to go to Salt Lake, I wish Dr. Bridges could go too and make sure some jackass doesn't get stupid on me. I have pretty much had my fill of doctors and trust is hard to come by.

No doctors, all physicians' assistants, at the ER!Started at urgent care, but the nurse was in charge of taking the X-rays. The nurse expressed concern about being able to get the X-rays done. Okay, you're clearly not trained to do this role. Instead of focusing on saving money by having lower skilled employees doing the job, give quality care, with appropriate staff. I never would have gone to the ER if the urgent care staff was appropriately staffed, with an X Ray technician. I didn't want to have my family member endure extra pain, and additional X-rays, if the nurse couldn't correctly take the X-rays. Clearly an administrative problem. Staff was kind. I'm hoping they do the right thing and adjust the charges. Any charge should be attached to a service provided, not just you went to the ER and saw a Physician's assistant for less than 10 minutes. Ridiculous! Make it right, St. Al's.

As for the testing. It was easy and fast as we set up an appointment online and filled out the paperwork (printout) prior to arrival. The test was quick and easy. The nurse administering the test explained the whole process. The PCR test took about 5 seconds / nostril. I got my results back in about 10hrs. It can take 48-72 hrs. If you can get tested early in the day you are first in first out for testing unless there is a priority testinging situation (first responders or something like a meat packing plant needing tested.) Paid with credit card. The test station is set up outside, so if it is cool in the morning wear a coat. Highly recommend Cole Diagnostics for travel Covid-19 testing.

Efficient site for CoVID-19 testing…read more We needed a CoVID-19 test for travel. Not many testing sites offer tests for travel purposes. We only found three in the valley. Cole Diagnostics offered the test that we needed at an affordable price. They have a great website to schedule your appointment. You select your date and time. The appointments are available in 5min intervals (8am to 3:55pm). We had to change our time slot. It was easy enough to call and have the rep change it for us. I'm really impressed by their notifications. They send you text and email reminders for your appointment. Prior to your appointment, you will need to download and fill out the paperwork. The staff will review it before you can be tested. You also need to pay for the test first. Tests for travel purposes were not covered by our insurance. Their testing site is outside in their parking lot. Be sure to bring a jacket if it's chilly. They have chairs that they wipe down if you want to sit as you wait. Note, you need to have a mask on at all times. When you get tested, you pull the mask down to expose your nose. The lab technician showed me the swab and explained the procedure. They swab both nostrils. My left nostril was surprisingly more sensitive than my right. Fortunately, it was over in seconds. Do I want to get tested again? No. However, I'm no longer fearful of the test.
