Come join our well-rounded team at a new state-of-the-art facility in the heart of Southern Wake county!

Our entire department is comprised of multiple imaging modalities that all function as one big, happy family! So, if you are looking for a place to work that truly values what you bring to the work field, promotes a healthy work/life balance, feels down to earth, more personable, and less like work-- then this is the place for you.
