    My daughter has an extraordinarily complex medical picture, and over the years I have had to take…read moreher to multiple physicians before finding doctors willing to thoroughly investigate what was happening. Too often, doctors seemed to make a bedside diagnosis first and then interpret everything afterward through that original theory. Dr. Geck stood out immediately because he did something that should be ordinary but, in our experience, was not: he treated my daughter like any other patient whose symptoms deserved to be investigated. He ordered significant testing, continued looking when the answers were not obvious, and made it clear that he did not want her to remain in pain without understanding why. His thought process was also notably similar to the physicians we encountered at Cleveland Clinic--careful, evidence-based, and willing to consider the complexity of the entire clinical picture. Dr. Geck is well known in our area for performing emergency and complex spinal surgery. That kind of work requires far more than technical surgical skill. It requires the ability to assess a patient quickly, recognize what matters among competing findings, and make difficult decisions in high-risk situations. As the mother of a daughter with significant disabilities, I will always remember Dr. Geck as one of the physicians who treated her with genuine dignity. Her imaging was difficult and her case was complicated, but he did not dismiss her because of that complexity. He remained committed to trying to understand what was happening and to finding a way to help her.

NO CALL BACK. At this point, one has to believe it is intentional. Charlie W. also claims in their replies to bad Yelp reviews that you can call them. Alas, the extension does not exist.

    Medical bills kill us, but CPI is the only provider who makes sure we get the best price, every…read moretime. For starters, our insurance doesn't cover imaging, so the provider doesn't have to bill us at the insurance rate, they can bill at the much higher Full Rate. And labs like LabCorp and Clinical Pathology Labs do indeed bill at the Full Rate, which is sometimes 6x higher than the insurance rate. But CPI lets us pay at the insurance rate, which saves us a ton. Further, sometimes self-pay is cheaper than going through insurance, so CPI always checks both prices and then bills us at whatever option is cheaper. We have dozens of providers and *nobody* else does this. Finally, Paige remembers us and always asks about the kids (she remembers details about them). We don't experience that anywhere else, either.

    I went to Central Park Imaging at 900 W 38th St #100, Austin, TX 78705 on 3/17/2026 for an MRI…read moreprocedure. The tech was Gary House. I was not in pain when I went in, but Mr. House elicited so much unexpected pain that I screamed suddenly in response. He did not react to my pain at all, but instead, continued to give test instructions. Mr. House was in a hurry. When the test was completed, he wanted me off the table as quickly as possible and told me to sit in another chair to put on my shoes. The MRI room is not adjacent to the bathroom, so patients have to walk through the halls in hospital attire in front of other patients before getting dressed. I was in pain for days after, and had to return to my doctor. I reported my experience to my doctor and to the manager of Central Park Imaging. On the facility's Website the profile for Gary House states: "He loves working in healthcare and helping people find out why they hurt." In my case, I was not treated respectfully, and Gary House put me in extreme physical and emotional pain. I have never received mistreatment at other imaging facilities.

    That was scary…read more.. Following last week's screening, I was called in for another series that was much more detailed and extensive. This has happened to me in other cities with other imaging centers... it has to do with 3D mammograms and how they perceive tiny calcifications. According to cancer.org, "Getting called back after a screening mammogram is fairly common and doesn't mean you have breast cancer. In fact, fewer than 1 in 10 women called back for more tests are found to have cancer." I arrived 20 minutes early and walked into a crowded waiting room. Nevertheless, my documentation was immediately updated and I was only made to wait about 5-6 minutes before I was called in. I was handed a pre-warmed robe and allowed to change. After having read the disgruntled reviews by women who have had to wait nearly an hour, I checked the time and realized that my screening was underway several minutes AHEAD OF TIME. Waiting for a mammogram is not easy. I feel for any woman who has to wait, no matter what her circumstances are (especially because some are exponentially bad!). Waiting for the results of a mammogram - especially when you're there for a second screening - is emotionally draining. I only had to wait about ten minutes and thankfully, I was given the all clear. Such relief. My radiologist was so gentle, kind and thoughtful. So was the woman at the front desk who signed me in. Still, I'm thrilled that I won't be seeing any of them for another year. Whew!

    I am experiencing a horrible time trying to get a call back diagnostic mammogram. I received a…read moreletter from ARA Women's imaging reminding me to make this appointment and informing me how important it was. After my doctor sent over 2 referrals they still can't find the orders. The office staff is so incompetent and unhelpful. I still haven't been able to make this very important appointment.

    My experiences at this location were great. I had to go back a second time a week later in order…read moreto get my veins checked (one time, intracranial and another time, extracranial scans), but because everybody was so friendly at this location and because it went rather quickly, it was no problem. They were also punctual both times -- early, actually! The front desk women were very kind, helpful, and efficient. After my name was called, it continued to be an efficient process. Special props to Amy for being so sweet, accommodating, and professional! I was happy to see her again when I returned! And thanks for the nice tunes - they helped! ;) Stephen (/Steven?) and Dave (David?) were also both very friendly and funny, and made the experience all the more painless. When I have requested other MRI reports at ARA in Austin, I received them within an hour (!), so A+ there, too! Thank you! P.S. My ARA appt. schedulers have been extremely warm, patient, and sympathetic, too.

    PATIENTS BEWARE: during check-in they required that I pay the full amount which I did. However, I…read moredid not need all of the procedures done and was told I would get reimbursement. It has been a full week and though I have called at least five times the reimbursement still has not processed. The technician told me while in the exam that patients are not required to pay the full amount during check-in. I told her that something we should know before the exam. Be aware.
