Our business is both high-touch and high-tech!
We're high-touch because we deliver an exceptional level of patient care and satisfaction that is unmatched in our industry. And, we've got the awards to prove it--winning Avatar's Exceeding Patient Expectations Award seven years in a row! Our fixed imaging sites are augmented by a large fleet of mobile coaches that allow us to pull up, park, and provide patient access to diagnostic imaging services and modalities from any hospital's parking lot or satellite location. We're high-tech because we use advanced medical imaging technologies and techniques to visualize internal tissues and structures of the body--helping physicians to diagnose and treat a wide range of diseases and injuries. But our expertise doesn't stop there. Because we're a market-leading radiology services provider, we're also the radiology pros hospitals and health systems partner with to build, manage, optimize, and grow their radiology service lines and outpatient centers. So, if you're passionate about contributing to excellence in patient care, driven to provide superior customer service, enthusiastic about improving access to high-quality healthcare, and just downright excited about working with such a terrific group of lively professionals, then you're definitely in the right place!

Highly organized and self-motivated, they ensure that patients are informed and at ease, staff is prepared, and operations are running smoothly.

Don't Be Fooled

The fraudster will send a check to the victim who has accepted a job. The check can be for multiple reasons such as signing bonus, supplies, etc. The victim will be instructed to deposit the check and use the money for any of these reasons and then instructed to send the remaining funds to the fraudster. The check will bounce and the victim is left responsible.
