COVID-19 Imaging Center - Jefferson Radiology

Here when you need us most.

To provide our communities with access to the care they need, our West Hartford location is now a COVID-19 symptom friendly imaging center, offering imaging to patients who are either under investigation for COVID-19, are symptomatic with a cough, fever or shortness of breath or are in the recovery phase of the illness.

The center will be open to patients who are symptomatic or have traveled either locally or internationally, but do not have an active, known case of COVID-19.

Care for every patient.

Even as the COVID-19 pandemic poses unprecedented challenges on individuals and institutions, Jefferson Radiology remains committed to the health and wellness of our communities. Beyond ensuring we can provide the best quality imaging services to our patients, Jefferson Radiology is now accepting symptomatic patients in our West Hartford facility. Until now, these patients had no other option in Connecticut to receive critical imaging care outside of a hospital environment.

Jefferson Radiology is not seeing active COVID-19 patients in West Hartford or any of our locations. Patients who have tested positive for COVID-19 in the last 14 days and have a fever, cough or shortness of breath need to be seen in a hospital radiology department. This center is to provide imaging services to those who are experiencing symptoms such as fever, cough or shortness of breath but have not tested positive for COVID-19 in the last 14 days.
