MRI services in Pittsburg
Freeman’s Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) coach service at 100 N. Pine St. in Pittsburg provides convenient on-site access for patients needing an MRI for orthopaedic, neurological injuries to the spine and head, workman’s compensation, abdominal issues and liver and pancreas exams. After the closure of many rural hospitals and clinics in Southeast Kansas, Freeman opened the Teslas (a 1.5T) MRI scanner from GE Healthcare in January 2021 to meet the needs of area patients in their own backyard. This service enables patients to receive care locally and decreases their travel time to and from appointments. To make an appointment, call 417.347.6868.
