INDIANAPOLIS – The St. Francis Heart Center has again joined LifeLine Screenings to offer low-cost health screenings at several south-side locations.
These preventive screenings are noninvasive and use ultrasound to test for peripheral vascular disease, carotid artery disease, abdominal aortic aneurysm and osteoporosis.
Knowing your risk of any of these conditions can help you and your physician determine what treatments to choose or preventive measures to take to lower your risks.
The next screening dates and locations are:
Aug. 19- St. Francis Heart Center, 8111 S. Emerson Ave., Entrance #1, Indianapolis
Aug. 20-St. Francis Hospital-Mooresville, 1201 Hadley Road, Mooresville
Sept. 15-Knights of Columbus, 511 E. Thompson Road, Indianapolis
Sept. 20-Hornet Park Community Center, 5245 Hornet Ave., Beech Grove
The price for all four screenings is $129; individual tests are $45 each. Tests take about 45 minutes to complete and registration is required. To make an appointment, call toll-free 800-779-6353.
