Dr. Theodore Tristán

For over thirty years, Tristán Associates has been a leading provider of diagnostic services. With board-certified radiologists, state-of-the-art equipment, and convenient locations throughout central Pennsylvania, we provide top-quality, easily accessible, diagnostic care.

Equally important to note is our focus on patient comfort. We appreciate the fact that testing of any nature can be stressful. Our doctors, technologists, and support staff work to create a comfortable environment. Because we have a doctor on-site, we can alleviate unnecessary anxiety by delivering test results quickly. In fact, in many instances, results are available before the patient leaves the facility.
