Radiology

We are proud to offer in house X-Ray services for all Capstone Family Medicine established patients.

Our Radiology team is registered by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologist which requires specialized training in the use of X-ray. X-ray uses ionizing radiation and there are times when your provider will need an X-ray to help diagnose or follow up on a specific condition. You can be assured that our technologists have been trained to use the least amount of radiation to obtain the highest quality image.

All X-rays are on a walk in basis only: Monday – Friday between 9:00am-5:00pm at our Capstone Family Medicine Wasilla location.

*Please note that X-rays will need to be ordered by a Capstone Family Medicine provider before they can be completed.

If you have any questions, please contact your provider.
