“Thank you for making this screening available to everyone. I have been a police officer for 28 years and my husband says I think I’m indestructible. I usually don’t take the time to make sure my health is where it should be. I was surprised to get my results that showed my calcium was almost non-existent. I had all 4 tests done and plan to have them done regularly. I never realized how much we need to take care of our bodies until recently.” – Linda Gamblin - Covington, Ky
Louisiana
“I just had a physical probably about within the last 60 days, but in as much as I am an editor and publisher, whatever I publish or edit, I normally try it myself first to make sure it’s legitimate and that everything was all right. But low and behold here comes that letter that says, immediate action required. So they operated immediately and sure enough, it was blocked 90% or more. I am 85 years old but in extremely good health.” - Colonial Steven dePyssler – Bossier City, La.

“There aren’t enough words in my vocabulary to express how appreciative I am that you offer your services to the general public.” –Florence Riley – Jackson, Mich.
“I owe my life to you and your ‘cause’. The doctor told me I didn’t have a chance without the surgery. I was having a series of TIA’s but would have had a full blown stroke which would have left me paralyzed on the right side of my body and with the inability to speak. The damage would have been permanent.” – Mary Clark - River Rouge, Mich.
“During the screening your technologist told me that they had detected an AAA and I needed to see my family doctor very soon. In addition, they gave me the ultrasound pictures to give him. It was then verified by a specialist. By the time the aortic stent was installed, they found that the aneurysm had grown by about 1 additional centimeter. At that rate of growth it is likely that I would have had a catastrophic event before the end of the year. Probably resulting in death. Now, after my 6 month follow-up, everything is fine.” – Thomas E. Tharp – Royal Oak, Mich.
Minnesota
“Thanks for saving my life.” – Ralph Sershen - St. Paul, Minn.
