Local context
DEXA Scans in Clinton & Southern Prince George's County
The clinic listed further down this page runs that scan for Clinton, covering 1 ZIP code across the area. A DEXA scan measures your body fat percentage, how much lean muscle you carry in each limb, the visceral fat around your organs, and your bone mineral density. It takes about 10 minutes and you get the numbers in writing.
Clinton, historically Surrattsville, is one of southern Prince George's County's anchor communities, home to MedStar Southern Maryland Hospital Center and sitting directly south of Joint Base Andrews, the home of Air Force One. One DEXA provider is listed for Clinton on this page, with its address and contact details. Insurance-billed diagnostic bone-density (DXA) scans typically need a physician's order, while self-pay testing through Dexascans.com requires none. Between the base's active-duty families, the Branch Avenue Metro commuters heading into Washington, and the trails and ballfields of Cosca Regional Park, Clinton mixes military discipline with suburban family life, and both benefit from the precision of DEXA, whether the question is body-fat standards or fracture risk.

Who books one
Who Books a DEXA Scan in Clinton
Joint Base Andrews Service Members & Families
Airmen and Guardians at Andrews live with body-composition standards, and DEXA is the most accurate way to know where you stand, body fat and lean-mass numbers rather than a tape estimate. Self-pay booking through Dexascans.com needs no referral, and the listings on this page show each clinic's address.
DC Commuters on the Branch Avenue Corridor
Clinton's workforce funnels up MD-5 to the Branch Avenue Metro and into Washington. A DEXA appointment can fit before the commute or on the way home, with about 15 minutes on the table; compare each listing's address against your route.
Adults Screening for Osteoporosis
Bone-density DXA is the diagnostic standard for fracture-risk screening, and physicians at MedStar Southern Maryland Hospital Center order it routinely for postmenopausal women and adults 65+. Medicare covers screening DXA for qualifying patients with an order; self-pay scans through Dexascans.com skip the referral entirely.

Frequently Asked Questions - Clinton DEXA Scans
Where can I get a DEXA scan in Clinton, MD?
One DEXA provider is listed for Clinton on this page with address and contact details. Text or call Dexascans.com at (786) 420-6630 and we'll book the one closest to you.
What does a DEXA scan cost in Clinton?
Self-pay pricing comes from each clinic, not from Dexascans.com — cash-pay DEXA in the Clinton area typically runs $99-$250 depending on whether you want body composition, a bone-density test, or both. Many clinics take HSA and FSA payments; confirm the rate when you book.
Do I need a physician's order for a DEXA scan in Clinton, Maryland?
For insurance-billed diagnostic DXA, yes, that's the standard workflow, and MedStar Southern Maryland Hospital Center physicians order these routinely. Self-pay booking through Dexascans.com skips the order entirely.
Does insurance cover DEXA testing in Clinton?
Bone-density DXA ordered as medically necessary is widely covered, Medicare pays for screening in qualifying adults, typically women 65+ and men 70+. Fitness-oriented body-composition scans are self-pay, priced by the clinic and typically $99-$250.
Is a DEXA scan safe?
Yes. The dose is on the order of one-tenth of a chest X-ray, below a single day of natural background radiation. The exam is open-table and painless, with 10-15 minutes of scan time.
How long is a DEXA appointment in Clinton?
Roughly 30 minutes, with about 10-15 minutes on the table; ask when you book how soon your results will be ready. Clinton sits right off MD-5, so the visit can fold into a Branch Avenue commute.
What does a DEXA scan actually measure?
Diagnostic DXA measures bone mineral density at the hip and spine to stage fracture risk. Full-body composition DEXA adds limb-by-limb fat and lean-muscle mapping plus visceral fat, the version most useful for fitness standards and training; check with the clinic when you book which scans it offers.
Is DEXA more accurate than the InBody at a PG County gym?
Yes, bioimpedance estimates swing 5-8% with hydration and timing, while DEXA measures tissue directly at about ±1-2%. If a number decides anything (a fitness standard, a medication decision, a training block's verdict) it should come from DEXA.
Is there DEXA testing near Joint Base Andrews or Camp Springs?
Yes. Clinton sits directly south of the Andrews gates via MD-5 and Woodyard Road, with Camp Springs and the Branch Avenue Metro area just to the north, and Fort Washington, Friendly, Accokeek, and Cheltenham all nearby. Each listing on this page shows its address, so you can pick the closest one.
Why do Andrews service members and Clinton seniors book DEXA scans?
Airmen and Guardians get measured body-fat numbers for fitness standards, far more precise than tape, while the community's older adults get the osteoporosis screening MedStar Southern Maryland physicians recommend. One scan serves both goals: text or call (786) 420-6630.
