REFERRING PHYSICIANS:
We are open and accepting patients for nearly all studies, including routine and elective exams. In accordance with CDC and American College of Radiology recommendations, we continue to use extreme caution in patient screening and masking. Please contact our Radiology team with any questions, we are happy to discuss your patient’s care.
PATIENTS:
In light of the COVID-19 outbreak we continue practicing enhanced screening, cleaning protocols, social distancing and exam spacing at all of our centers.
Our location is practicing “Safety Scheduling” for all exams. The health of our patients and staff is our highest priority. By adding time to each appointment our patients are kept separated from others and we are ensuring all rooms and equipment are cleaned before each exam.
Patients are encouraged to wear their own cloth face covering/mask to their appointment.
All scheduled patients will be screened during appointment confirmation calls.
All scheduled patients will also be screened at their time of check-in.
Please call to reschedule your appointment if you have a cough, fever and/or shortness of breath or if you have been in close contact with someone with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 in the past 14 days.
No walk-in patients.
No visitor or companion may come in the center.
Caregivers may assist patients entering the center and then leave during the exam.

Hear What our Patients are Saying!
From the front office staff all the way through to the back with the radiology techs and the physician, Dr Olafson, this facility gets it right. My 13 year old son had an MR with an injection prior and they were all fantastic. I highly recommend this office.

I called on Tuesday to make an appointment not expecting them to say they could see me on the day I called. Very friendly and professional at the front desk and my ultrasound tech was just as polite and friendly. I had a great experience. They were wonderful. I was in and out within 30 minutes.

I had to take my 6 year old child for an X-ray. The facility was clean and the staff was very friendly. They even gave my daughter a small stuffed animal to make her feel more comfortable. My bill was less than if I would have gone to a hospital for the same service. I will definitely be going back should the need arise for diagnostic scans my family may need in the future.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
By way of introduction, my name is Sally T., and I reside in Florence, SC. I have had the opportunity to visit your Imaging office here several times, and I wanted you to know that it is the best thing that this town has ever seen! It is absolutely awful to travel to either hospital, when walking long distances is an issue to just get to the X-ray department, and they offer NO alternatives. Your staff at this location is EXEMPLARY, the parking is so convenient, and you can just walk in the front door and be seen with very little wait time. I have told everyone that I know to PLEASE go to your facility, because we can. We don’t have to be SENT to the hospital for any type of scan or X-ray.
Please don’t ever leave Florence ….. we are so happy you are here.
Blessings and Merry Christmas,
Sally T.

Dear Ms. Collins and Ms. Horton,
I want to compliment you both on the staff that is working at the Long Bay Diagnostic Imaging Center on 21st Avenue No. Everyone there knows their job, is friendly, efficient and actually fun to be around.
It is really difficult to receive this type of service in anything that is medically related. You guys have a special operation with caring employees and you should be proud.
Sincerely,
Dennis P.
