As Public Hospitals Struggle, Radius Imaging Geelong Offers Same-Day Ultrasounds

GEELONG, Australia - October 2, 2016 /MarketersMedia/

Fifteen months since first opening, Radius Imaging Geelong maintains a strong record of same-day, no-wait-time medical ultrasound imaging, with extended hours now making the service even more accessible. With 100 years of combined professional experience, the Radius Imaging sonographer team provides responsive, affordable service to patients from throughout the Greater Geelong area.

Four spacious, purpose-built ultrasound suites, including two with integrated toilet access for obstetric and pelvic examinations, receive patients without delay, while five on-staff female sonographers allow for personal choice. Thanks to this impressive level of service quality and responsiveness, Radius Imaging has quickly become the provider of Ultrasound Geelong physicians and patients turn to most eagerly, with same-day referrals also regularly coming from as far away as Melbourne to the east and Warnambool to the southwest.

"With public hospitals throughout the area struggling to meet demand, we're proud to be able to shoulder some of the burden with our own same-day ultrasound, MRI, and other imaging services," said a Radius Imaging representative, "Having an ultrasound, X-ray, or MRI procedure performed without delay can greatly improve a person's prognosis, and everything we do revolves around providing these important services to our patients as soon as possible. From our new Saturday operating hours to our state-of-the-art imaging equipment and suites, we are always striving to do the utmost for people throughout the area. We are proud of what we have accomplished in becoming the leading same-day Geelong MRI and ultrasound provider and promise to maintain that level of service in the future."

Facing tighter funding and an aging population, Australia's public hospitals are struggling to keep up. A widely circulated report published last year by the Australian Medical Association described a "perfect storm" already pummeling the nation's public health system, with waiting times rising significantly across the board over the preceding decade.

As result, private health care service providers play an increasingly important role in keeping Australians healthy. Radius Imaging Geelong was founded 15 months ago with a mission of providing affordable, same-day ultrasound and MRI services to people throughout the area, thereby filling a significant gap that had emerged as public providers fought to meet demand.

Serving the goals of access, affordability, and responsiveness with everything from the facility's on-site parking and ambulance bay to its imaging suites and experienced, highly trained staff, Radius Imaging has quickly become an important, much relied-upon part of the Greater Geelong area's healthcare ecosystem. With operating hours now extended to include Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., all are invited to learn more at the Radius Imaging website.
