Quicker Service Means Sooner Treatment
|
WNR Manager, Vijay Gupta notes that "Quicker service means that treatment could start sooner. All the patient needs is a requisition form from a referring doctor, regardless of the clinic name on the top of the form."
Clients appreciate the atmosphere at WNR. Gupta says, "People are often stressed when they need to have diagnostic testing. Heading to a facility, paying expensive parking and having a long wait in a cramped waiting room does nothing to decrease that stress". As an alternative, WNR offers free parking, a pleasant, bright and roomy waiting room, with friendly staff and a warm atmosphere. Walk-ins can cut their waiting time with a quick phone call ahead. Obstetrical and general ultrasounds are by appointment. Click here to see Hours and Schedule for Imaging Services |
