If you struggle with traditional MRI machines, Stand-Up MRI of Queens may be exactly what you need. After experiencing panic attacks during previous MRI procedures in enclosed machines, I needed an alternative. Stand-Up MRI of Queens offers an open seated MRI experience that changed everything for me. It is a little snug, but the open design makes all the difference. I had no issues sitting through the entire procedure, and for someone who had been dreading MRIs, that is a big deal. The technician recognized me from a previous visit and was warm, professional, and genuinely helpful throughout. That kind of familiarity and care goes a long way when you are already anxious about the process. One thing worth knowing that I did not realize until recently — they will arrange transportation to and from your appointment and bill it directly to your insurance. I took advantage of the ride home and it was a seamless experience. If that is something that would help you, do not hesitate to ask about it. For the foreseeable future, this is where I will be getting all of my MRI procedures done. If a traditional MRI machine has ever caused you anxiety or panic, this place will be a game changer.
