Park Ridge Health Imaging Center expands ultrasound services

Press release:

The Park Ridge Health Imaging Center, at Blue Ridge Health, is expanding its ultrasound services to meet the growing demand for convenient access to care. Beginning Monday, August 7, 2017, it will offer ultrasound services five days per week (Monday – Friday).
“We have been seeing a steady increase in the requests for ultrasound services at our Imaging Center located at Blue Ridge Health,” said Todd Guffey, Park Ridge Health Director of Diagnostic Imaging. “Our patients have told us they appreciate having the option to receive these vital health screenings in a location that is closer to home or work, so it is more convenient and they are more likely to follow through with the care.”
In April, 2016, Park Ridge Health opened its Imaging Center on the second floor of the Blue Ridge Health building located at 2579 Chimney Rock Road in Hendersonville. This center brings convenient access to diagnostic imaging for people throughout Hendersonville and the surrounding communities including Edneyville, Dana, Upward and Fruitland.
The Park Ridge Health Imaging Center provides screening digital Mammography and Ultrasound by appointment, as well as, walk-in access to X-rays.

The location of the Park Ridge Health Imaging Center provides direct access for people receiving care through Blue Ridge Health Services. It also serves as the imaging provider for Shriner’s Hospital for Children, which provides a bi-monthly clinic for families in its care who live in Western North Carolina.
