Journal entry: February 15th, 2024…read more First-time here at Precision Imaging... I have been plagued by chronic lower & upper intestinal and internal organ pain for @least 7 years now....... & ............ Counting, unfortunately, and that has gone undiagnosed for just as long if not longer in all truthfulness... Today's visit, is all about, confirming whether or not, there is a "Paraesophageal Hernia present in my body". My future surgeon, Dr. Antonio Coirin, MD, whom my Mother & I met earlier in this week, informed me that I did NOT have this type of Hernia, but that he'd like to have just one more diagnostic done and that was a "FLUOROSCOPY & ESOPHAGRAM", performed, outside of his office..... (Clear copy of the actual procedural Doctors order for Precision Imaging downloaded to this Yelp! review. Good News, is that they scheduled it for the very next day however, Mom & I were so exhausted from the round-trip commute to the office, and the disappointing medical news received, because, we don't reside in Modesto and the reality of the situation (was sinking in for us both) which was looking rather grim at least............................................ A little detour here now... I have photo's uploaded to this Yelp! review detailing all that I am journaling here... It just feels more complete & explanatory to me........................... This office is expansive! There are multiple long hallways that were clean and professional as was the flooring in ALL areas of this medical professional office. Nice, attractive & soothing is their choice of coloring on the walls of the hallways; welcoming ..... There is "pride" in ownership, here, and it is welcoming once you get past the "eager" ladies at the front desk............... Changing Rooms for the females (sign on the door lists it as a female-only room. As I was mentioning, this changing room where you may or may not need to remove clothing and don a gown. I had to loose the clothing but was able to keep my shoes and socks on; everything else; had to go. I'd rather keep all my clothing on but understand with "radiological procedures", the need to have ZERO metallic and/or cumbersome items not be copesetic with the diagnostics that are ordered. If your a tad-on-the-cool-side, as in body temperature you may consider wearing some heavy sock and heavy underwear. I wasn't frozen, but I was a bit chilled once the procedures began................................................. So if a male patient is looking for services here you may want to reach out to the office by phone & inquire as to that. In the end, I drank a total of 4 large containers of barium in-order to complete the Esophagram (Defined by the National Cancer Instituge (.gov) as: (ee-SAH-fuh-gram) A series of x-ray pictures of the esophagus taken after a patient drinks a liquid containing barium sulfate (a form of the silver-white metallic element barium). The barium sulfate coats and outlines the inner wall of the esophagus so that it can be seen on the x-ray pictures. & Fluoroscopy (Defined by the CDC, Centers of Disease Control, U.S.A. is: "Fluoroscopy is a medical procedure that makes a real-time video of the movements inside a part of the body by passing x-rays through the body over a period of time. X-rays are a form of ionizing radiation."

The radiology staff (2 people) were professional and serious; borderlining nervous. Have clue not 1 as to why they may have potentially nervous, I am a watcher so I pay attention........ And then it was over & done with! Didn't feel nauseated from all the barium and was instructed more than once to drink plenty of water so as to not get constipated from the barium.... So far so good as today it's now 24 hours after-the-fact and besides having pretty painful cramping, diarrhea & lower bowel pain, I feel just fine. I'm being serious, I do ;)....... The parking lot is very spacious with enough empty slots for parking. We are both disabled; me and my Mother, but we didn't see many Disability Parking Slots around. That was disappointing..... I am planning on refreshing with updates this Yelp! Business Review since we have 5-weeks of DAILY Radiation to prepare for & execute to completion..... Prayer's are always welcome and we are both Baptized & Communion Complete Catholics; I hope this review aids you in healthy ways..... Sincerely, ~Jana Leigh Thomas :) Sr. Yelper! :)

My surgeon(and 2 other DR's) said the scans were of such terrible quality, they could not use them and I had to do them again out of town, hrs away. This held up extremely critical treatment I needed to start by over a month. My son needed surgery on both of his feet and also went to Modesto radiology. His doctor said the scan was worthless and was so bad it showed 3 feet. He also had to repeat his scans somewhere else. Needless to say this is a absolute joke and totally unacceptable, when people need high quality scans and they need them fast. If you have a serious illness don't accept a referral to Modesto Radiology.

I was in and out of my appointment in less than 10 minutes!!!!! This place is great, staff was fantastic, they do their job very well. Side note: I do not suggest anyone walk in without an appointment as appointments have seniority and you could be waiting hours and still not be seen!

You also have the option to check in from your phone if you're signed up for Quest's text alerts, which is convenient. I came in on a Tuesday around 11:30 AM for an 11:40 appointment, and it was definitely busy enough that I was expecting a delay. Surprisingly, I was called back right on time at 11:41. My phlebotomist was friendly, professional, and efficient. She brought me into a private room, verified my information, and completed the draw on the first attempt without any issues. Overall, despite how crowded it was, the process was smooth and well-organized. I had a positive experience and would return to this location again.

Also, I ordered labs yesterday and two of the tests I had ordered were duplicated in a more comprehensive test that I had ordered. The person processing my order, Donna Yarbrough, at direct labs caught the duplication and sent me an email saying they were refunding the unnecessary tests and refunding my card. How cool is that. They've got your back too! Highly recommend and will use them again.

I mean, who likes getting blood work done? The great thing about this place is it's easy access to…read moreparking, there's never much of a wait, and out of the few times I've gone I've only had one dud phlebotomist. They practice social distancing, there is hand sanitizer, and there is a computerized check in. Masks are required, and they temperature check you. I'm very easy to draw from, and I had been lucky with the gentleman, Gabriel, that does phlebotomy there. He makes a little small talk to distract you but then he's very quick and painless with taking how much ever he has to take. I don't bruise with him and I clot just fine even though I'm on blood thinners. This last time however, it was a lady... And she was less than spectacular. It took her two jabs to get the blood and left a heck of a bruise.... So hopefully that was a fluke thing it'll be the guy next time again. Overall, this office is pretty good for what it is if you have to get blood work done. The lack of having to wait makes it better.
