The holidays can be bright for some… and heavy for others.
If you’re moving through this season with grief, exhaustion, or a heart that feels a little tender, please know this:
You are not alone. You are not behind. You are not failing.
You’re human.
And you deserve space to breathe, feel, rest, and cope in your own way. 💛

Unfortunately, stories like this are all too common. That’s exactly why Cancer Care Specialists created Personalized Imaging Consultants—to give patients a better, more affordable imaging experience.

At Personalized Imaging Consultants, your radiologist fee is included, meaning no hidden charges and only one bill. Combine that with cutting-edge imaging and a team of the best experts in the region, and you get exceptional care at a price you can feel good about.

Affordable. Transparent. Patient-centered. 💙

Beginning October 1st, 2025, we will no longer be able to offer telehealth services. Unfortunately, this change is due to decisions made at the federal level, as Medicare’s telehealth coverage was not extended by Congress. This does not impact the Colla Mental Health Program.

We know many of you have relied on telehealth for convenience, safety, and peace of mind, and we deeply understand how difficult this change may feel. Please know this decision was not ours, and we share in your disappointment.

Our commitment to your health and well-being remains stronger than ever. We will continue to provide compassionate, high-quality care in person, and our team is here to support you through this transition. If you have concerns, questions, or need help making arrangements, please don’t hesitate to reach out — we’re here for you.

Thank you for trusting us with your care. 💙
