Her level of attention to both the patients and the physicians she works with is unique in a healthcare environment that sometimes values quantity over quality. Charter Radiology offers the most sophisticated, state-of-the-art technology including 3 Tesla wide bore scanners, which is the gold standard in imaging equipment today. In addition to the best technology, Dr. Uppal surrounds herself with the finest radiology team to offer patients an unparalleled experience. “Yes, I have the education and credentials, my readings are accurate, and I have the very best imaging technology, but it’s the genuine concern that I have for my patients that sets Charter apart. People want great medical care from a doctor who wouldn’t treat strangers any differently than she would treat her own family. And, that’s what we deliver at Charter Radiology.”
