Life Line Screening

This is a first class outfit which travels around to many local sites doing certain medical screening tests, most valuably to me their inexpensive ultrasound (for abdominal aortic aneurysm and of the carotid arteries) at a tiny fraction of the price at fixed base local firms and hospitals. Discounts will be readily obtained by a Google search and/or by signing up for the informative Life Line Screening newsletter. Most important in my opinion is the ultrasound test for one silent killer, the abdominal aortic aneurysm. We know multiple patients who have had such aneurysms. One athletic young tennis pro dropped dead of internal bleedout from a ruptured aortic aneurysm. We know two seniors screened for this condition, found to have these aneurysms and who had stents implanted via a catheter going up an artery from the groin. They were totally cured instead of the generally fatal alternative. I highly recommend that all patients make use of all the very price/effective screenings offered by Life Line Screening to prevent gratuitous morbidity, fatality and cost to patient. It is regrettable that inexpensive ultrasound screening is not being more routinely and widely used to screen for ultrasound screenable conditions such as tumors, certain cancers, stones and left ventricular ejection fraction. IMHO this would be of great benefit to cost reduction in the broken US healthcare system as well as to the health of patients.
