TRG - BRIDGEPORT CENTER FOR MEDICAL IMAGING

Mar 2023

I took my mother here to get an ultrasound and she is in a wheel chair , I had my child with me also . I was told my child couldn't go back to the exam room. So I told the tech "ok you can take my mother and I'll stay out here with my child ". She then tells me she can't wheel my mother into the exam room or help my mother onto the exam bed. I said I can't leave my child out in the waiting room by herself . The tech says " would you like to reschedule then?" Rescheduling was not an option because my mother was getting this test to see if she has a blood clot . So I choose to leave my child in the waiting room since there was no other option . I go into the exam room help my mother on the bed . The tech could sense I upset and kept asking me if there was a problem . I went out into the hallway and she kept asking me if I had a problem . I said no just go do your job . She responds and said " I'll go get my manager ". I did NOT ask to speak to the manager ... So the manager comes up and starts talking about the appointment , I said I'm ok with it . She says ok but you can't stand in the hallway , so I say where do I stand then ? . To sum it up I was treated like I was someone hostile even though I never been my whole life . NO compassion to help an elderly woman . I feel she didn't want to assist my mother because she is overweight and disabled . This is a VERY discriminatory place . Do NOT go here !!

I have had a lot of imaging in the last few years. I oughta have a punch card. Typically I go to The Center for Medical Imaging at Tanasbourne on Fridays ( my day off) and much later in the day. It is ten minutes from my house. My oncologist scheduled me here for my 6 month post chemo CT on a Monday at 7:30. A workday at the crack of dawn. No one checked with me first. So, I started grumpy. My minion picked me up at 6:30 and because of traffic, he was grumpy too. Parking was easy. The place was easy to find on the ground floor to the left of Providence Immediate Care. They had "Finding Dory" playing on a big tv and there was comfy seating. My wait was only long because I had to drink contrast beforehand in two doses over an hour. It was hard to stay cranky for too long. Everyone was really nice, the procedure was smooth. The contrast they made me drink was disgusting as usual ( I don't like the texture, I am a fragile flower) but they have a bowl of peppermints on the counter that really helped. Yay. My results were in My Chart fairly soon after, a clean scan. No sign of cancer. All good. And my minion got me a mocha after. Of course.
