The Hexarad team is an innovative group of radiologists who understand what it takes to provide a good quality service and we have consistently seen a turnaround time of less than 48 hours.

Dr Johann Alberts
Chief Technology & Solutions Officer

New referrers have been impressed with their reports and insist now on their work being reported by Hexarad. It has been a wonderful, easy relationship.

They have been an extremely valuable resource, as a stand-alone Imaging Centre, they have provided us with clear, concise protocols and same-day reporting.

Christelle Botha
Clinical Lead

At Hexarad I feel respected as a peer, like I am part of the solution rather than a cog in the machine, they take an active interest in me and the wellbeing of the team.

They are responsive, receptive to innovation and I am listened to, which means I feel very much involved. It's like joining a like-minded radiologist family rather than a corporate organisation.
