Relay for Life a Success!

Thank you to everyone who came out to Lyman High School this past week end to show their support for Dr. Bob Hoover and the FAAF team.
Relay for Life raises funds each year to continue the research that will put an end to cancer once and for all. 

 

 

 

X-Rays

Our team of specialists and staff believe that informed patients are better equipped to make decisions regarding their health and well being.

Browse through these diagnoses and treatments to learn more about topics of interest to you. Or, for a more comprehensive search of our entire Web site, enter your term(s) in the search bar provided.

As always, you can contact our office if you have any questions or would like to express a concern.



X-rays help determine whether a bone has been fractured or damaged by conditions such as an infection, arthritis, or other disease.

Other reasons for conventional X-rays on your feet are to:

  • Evaluate changes in the bones from infections, arthritis, or other bone disease.
  • Assess whether a child's bones are growing normally.
  • Locate foreign objects (such as pieces of glass or metal) in a wound.
  • Determine whether bones are properly set after treating a fracture.

Pregnant women, especially those in their first trimester, are advised against having X-rays because the radiation may harm the unborn child.
