I came here on a Friday night for an MRI for my right shoulder. I love that they have extended hours for people who work late. It's so convenient! I checked in and was greeted nicely by the young lady at the expansive check in counter. I was surprised i didn't have to pay the $36 copay as it indicated on the website. She told me that the contract between Radnet & Tricare negotiated that we did not pay a copay. I like that! She directed me to sit in the waiting room until called back. The place is immaculate as usual and the old jungle furniture was replaced with more practical & functional seating. Thankfully, I waited no longer than 5 minutes when my name was called. Jose my technician was very friendly, polite, and professional. He took me to the changing room, gave me a gown, and showed me how to lock my items. He prepped me, gave me a pair of foam earplugs & had me lie down while attaching a contraption to my right arm I believe meant to keep it stable. He placed pads all around & told me to breathe normally then draped a blanket over me thankfully! It felt tight going in. I was doing fine for a bit then I experienced a panic attack. I started to hyperventilate. He cautioned me to control my breathing. I had to calm myself and I began to inhale slowly and draw out a long shallow breath through my mouth. I never experienced a panic attack before and I've had countless MRIs done in the past. It seemed to take forever! I was praying it would be over soon when Jose announced only 5 more minutes. Longest 5 minutes ever! I was so glad when it was over! It's not Jose's fault. He was just as nice as he could be. I still like coming here because it's close by and they've always treated me well. read more
