TESTIMONIALS

Here's what some CSSC members have said about the screenings so far:

"I arranged to have your screening as my mother has osteoporosis. I received my results immediately, which was great, rather than having to wait several weeks. Overall, this was a great service from start to finish."

"I am 37 years old, health conscious regarding diet and I exercise regularly. My results were very poor, which proves osteoporosis is NOT only an old-age problem. You need to be screened so that if your results are below average, you can start reversing the process before it's too late."

"I would recommend it to anyone interested in their health and well-being. An excellent service."

"I was told at screening that I had a problem and agreed that my GP could be contacted to arrange for a DEXA scan at hospital, where it was confirmed I had osteoporosis. Without having your screening, there was no way my GP would have sent me for a body scan as there was no indication I was 'at-risk'."
