About 20 years ago that company came out to our workplace with a mobile CT??? scan machine. It was very cool to get a disk of your full body scan
Our insurance paid for it

It caught one guys softball sized thoracic aortic aneurysm, he could have been dead at any minute

Wow! that is the type of thing I want to catch. Strokes and heart disease runs in the family. All checks up to now have been fine but I want to dig deeper.

Next phase of my health progress is to get my intermittent rapid heart rate under control. Been told multiple times it's "normal" but I want it gone. Ultimately will get an ablation to zap the wiring to stop the issue.

Our Church has let this company come and set up and I have never heard anything negative about them (I had it done it three times over the last 25 years or so) from anyone in our Church who had the tests done.

Then I finally went to the VA and they do similar tests every year.

If not for the VA, I'd still let 'em check me out when they come to the Church.

Yeah I checked out their page for locations and I noticed it was a lot of churches, synagogues, and VFA etc. type locations.

Anyone else had experience with this?

Based on my research it seems to be a great "preventative maintenance" medical tool.

Thoughts?

Work sent us to an actual location of theirs. One employee was found to have thyroid cancer.

They came on site for flu shots.


My beef was they didn’t share the results with us by default. Just with some unknown doctor somewhere..

You can go to them for test on your own… they have series of test you can get, like male hormone, heart related, or others.



Endeavor to persevere.

When we had it done we did a one on one with a Dr to go over our results

I don't have experience with them but the link shows they offer packages that include ultrasound tests, EKG type test, and blood tests. They show "cancer" but the fine print shows they test only for prostate cancer via PSA level blood test which is still important.

Not sure if you have had a physical lately but most insurance play for one physical a year.

Seems to be a good value for the tests that are being done.
