No referral needed. Unlike UHealth (University of Miami Health) or Jackson Memorial Hospital imaging, you can book your DEXA scan directly with us for body composition and wellness purposes. We welcome self-referred clients and physician referrals from Coral Gables, South Miami, and the broader Miami-Dade medical and academic community.

Is a DEXA scan safe? (Coral Gables DEXA scanning)

Absolutely. Our Coral Gables DEXA scans use extremely low-dose X-rays — far less than a standard chest X-ray. The scan is completely painless, non-invasive, and takes just 10-15 minutes. It's the same clinical technology used in University of Miami research programs and endorsed by the Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center for bone density monitoring.

How long does a DEXA scan take in Coral Gables?

Your DEXA scan appointment at our Coral Gables clinic takes about 30 minutes total. The actual scan is only 10-15 minutes — easy to fit around a UM campus schedule, a Miracle Mile morning, or a Venetian Pool afternoon.

Does insurance cover DEXA scans in Coral Gables, Florida?

Many insurance plans cover DEXA scans when medically necessary for bone density testing. Our Coral Gables clinic accepts HSA and FSA payments. Florida Blue, Aetna, Cigna, and UnitedHealthcare plans often include bone density benefits for eligible Miami-Dade County patients. Faculty and staff at the University of Miami may also have health plan benefits worth checking.

What does a full body DEXA scan measure in Coral Gables?

A full body DEXA scan at our Coral Gables clinic measures total and regional body fat percentage, lean muscle mass distribution, visceral fat levels, and bone mineral density T-scores. For UM Hurricanes student-athletes, Miracle Mile fitness practitioners, Old Cutler Road cyclists, and health-focused Coral Gables professionals, this comprehensive data delivers the clinical precision that the City Beautiful's sophisticated health culture demands.

How is DEXA different from InBody scans at Coral Gables gyms?

Many Coral Gables fitness studios and UM campus facilities offer InBody BIA scans, but DEXA is the gold standard. InBody can vary by +/-5-8% based on hydration. DEXA uses X-ray technology for direct measurement with +/-1-2% accuracy — the research standard used in University of Miami sports medicine research and endorsed by the UM Miller School of Medicine faculty.

Yes!
