Bone Density Scans
We are one of only a few clinics in the area that offers Bone Density Scans as an "in house" procedure. These scans aid in the early detection of Osteoporosis. The procedure consists of a detailed, specific xray of certain bones. The procedure takes only a few minutes and is "pain free." Dr. Huling is licensed and certified in the interpretation of bone scans.

We have recently added the Heel Dexa Scan which also screens patients for Osteoporosis. This is done by a type of ultrasound on the heel of the foot. This instrument is small and light weight and can easily be transported to heath fairs, industries, and churches for community participation.

Health Fair
We are also happy to conduct Health fairs for your clubs or companies and give lectures on various health issues to community groups

Heart Monitor
Patients who have symptoms of irregular heartbeats can sometimes feel nervous and unsure of what to do. By the time they see a provider, the symptoms have stopped. One solution is to wear a monitor for a 24 hour period which will enable the provider to see how your heart beats, even when you sleep. It records your heartbeat during all your normal activity. This monitor is about the size of a walkman and is held by a strap. We make this as comfortable as possible.

We have just added a new procedure to detect fluid behind the ear, infection, and hearing impairment. It is a simple, painless, quick test, and results are available immediately. Adults also benefit from the procedure. It can determine if vertigo is related to fluid behind the ear, or if a more serious illness should be considered.
