Arrive Early for Your Exam
When you have an appointment at Advantage Diagnostic & MRI, you should arrive 15 minutes early so you have time to register, as you will need to complete several forms. You should bring your photo ID and insurance card. If you are a self-pay patient, you can pay by credit or debit card or cash.
The duration of your appointment depends on the exam being performed. Call us
now to schedule your exam.
