DEXA scan pricing in Gainesville starts at $149 for a comprehensive body composition analysis. The bone density test is $199, and our complete health package is $249. We offer transparent pricing with no hidden fees and accept HSA/FSA payments, below what UF Health Shands or North Florida Regional Medical Center, which typically charge $300 or more for comparable imaging.

Gainesville's UF Gators athletic program, the exercise science research programs at the University of Florida, the Paynes Prairie cycling and running community, and the Lake Wauburg triathlon culture all create extraordinary demand for body composition data. Our partner clinics serving the Gainesville area use the same FDA-approved, medical-grade DEXA technology used in UF's research programs, accurate to within 1-2% for body fat, lean muscle, and bone density measurement.

No referral needed. Unlike UF Health Shands imaging or North Florida Regional Medical Center, you can book your DEXA scan directly with us for body composition and wellness purposes. We welcome self-referred clients and physician referrals from Gainesville-area doctors, coaches, and personal trainers throughout Alachua County.

It is. DEXA scans at partner clinics serving Gainesville 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 technology used in UF's body composition research and is endorsed by sports medicine researchers at the University of Florida.

Your DEXA scan appointment at our partner clinic serving the Gainesville area takes about 30 minutes total. The actual scan is only 10-15 minutes, easy to fit into a UF student-athlete's training schedule or a health professional's lunch break near the UF Health campus.

Many insurance plans cover DEXA scans when medically necessary for bone density testing. Our partner clinics serving the Gainesville area accept HSA and FSA payments. Florida Blue, Aetna, Cigna, and student health plans often include bone density benefits for eligible Alachua County patients. Contact us to verify your specific coverage.

A full body DEXA scan at our partner clinic serving the Gainesville area measures total and regional body fat percentage, lean muscle mass distribution, visceral fat levels, and bone mineral density. For UF student-athletes, exercise science researchers, Paynes Prairie cyclists, and Gainesville residents, this data provides the clinical precision that a university town with UF's research standards demands.

Many Gainesville gyms and UF campus recreation facilities offer InBody BIA scans, but DEXA is the gold standard. InBody can vary by +/-5-8% based on hydration, a real issue for Gator athletes training through Florida's hot summers. DEXA uses X-ray technology for direct measurement with +/-1-2% accuracy. This is the standard used in body composition research throughout the University of Florida's exercise science programs.

Yes! At our Gainesville location, you'll receive your comprehensive DEXA scan results within 24 hours via email, including body fat percentage, lean muscle mass by region, bone density T-scores, and visceral fat data, the precision that Gainesville's science-forward community expects.
