The Taylor-High Clinic has been designed for the comfort and convenience of patients and with access to the latest technology in diagnosing conditions that can lead to illness. The offices are quiet, uncrowded, graciously appointed, and attended by a professional staff that focuses on the well-being of patients.

Laboratory

The on-site laboratory has the same blood and urine analyzers that are used in hospitals and large reference laboratories. Routine testing for all Cholesterol subsets; for Diabetes management with Glycolated Hemoglobin; the latest ideas in measuring arterial inflammation with CRP; and the detection of prostate cancer with PSA are just a few of the routine laboratory analyses that are performed. The well-trained and experienced technicians can process specimens on demand and quickly, allowing the physicians and dieticians to help patients make informed decisions about their progress toward good health.


Body Scanner

One of the few Siemens SOMATOM Sensation 16 Computerized Scanners in the world is used to run screening and diagnostic tests on Taylor-High patients. Operated by North Atlanta Scan Associates, the CT scanner performs Total Body Scans, including coronary artery calcium scores, evaluations of the Lungs, Liver, Kidneys and other vital organs. Images are recorded with breathtaking anatomic detail. This latest development in x-ray imaging is done faster, with greater detail, and with less radiation than any previous CT scanning device. The scanner is used regularly to obtain Virtual Colonoscopy, the diagnostic cutting edge in preventing colon cancer.

Electronic Medical Records

The Taylor-High Clinic is fully interconnected by wireless technology and utilizes the latest innovations in Electronic Medical Records for efficient communication with staff and patients. Diagnostic, laboratory, and imaging information can be trended and produced in succinct and easy to follow graphics. Patient privacy has been designed into the system at every level. Communication between the Clinic and patients is facilitated via the Internet with this web site and an extranet capacity using a secure server and password encoded access.
