Radiology
Another primary diagnostic tool utilized by physicians
are x-rays and imaging diagnostic studies. The technology available
in the medical field continues to change and become more sophisticated.
STMC maintains state of the art equipment and technology formerly
available only in larger medical facilities. We're committed to
providing the highest quality diagnostic facilities close to home
for our patients.
X-rays and imaging services provide an inside look
at your body and its function. Some x-ray testing is simple, some
require special preparation on a patient's part. Your doctor's
office will inform you when your radiology appointment is made
if there is anything you must do prior to the test.
Our primary imaging services are located in the
Wharton Clinic. Each of our clinics have basic radiology services.

Plain film X-rays, available in all STMC Clinics

Area physicians also utilize our radiology services
for their patients. Referrals are made from their offices and
appointments may be made by the doctor's office or by the patient.
In the Wharton Clinic, patients go directly to the
Radiology Department to check in for their procedure. At all other
clinics, patients check in with the receptionist.
