What People Say About Us
Joe of San Diego
Great experience, I am looking to lose fat, retain lean mass and overall be functionally fit and needed data to support a new dietary and fitness regimen. Not only was I able to discuss the DEXA and VOR test results with Seth, but I was able to dive into a variety of tweaks and suggestions to my overall health plan based on my unique results. Very competent staff, great experience, I look forward to future tests.
Lea of San Diego
What a great find and so happy that Yelp's star rating is so accurate with this business. The process of booking, paying, and following through with my dexa scan appointment was so easy. I literally made my profile yesterday and booked my appointment for this morning at 9:45am. If you're curious about your health status and enjoy numbers, graphs and of course self-improvement, I highly suggest getting your metrics checked out here!
Kelly of San Diego
Travis was as kind as he was professional. He took his time and sent me an e-mail of my results that at my request were tailored considering my needs. I have an eating disorder and he was very professional but also very human about it. Really great experience. Highly recommend.
April of Carlsbad
This was a quick and enjoyable experience. I feel like I came away with vital information that will help me achieve my fitness goals. The staff was personable and professional. I highly recommend getting a scan done with this company.
William of San Diego
When it comes to measuring your body composition in fine detail, DEXA scanning takes it to another level. No calipers, guessing your body fat on the scale, or getting wet via hydrostatic testing. This precise way to check your results has created a shocking revelation in my fitness journey and I'm glad I got it.
NW of Imperial Beach
The body scan is awesome and so is the staff. I got my first scan to see what my nos. were. Based on that, I came up with a game plan. I got my 2nd scan today, and I've lost 10 lbs of fat and put on 10 lbs of muscle in 4 months! It all started with the scan. The scan breaks down all types of relevant nos. important to come up with your own plan. They offer the best price and flexibility for this scan, which is the most accurate that you can get. The information you get is more than worth it.
Kimmy of San Diego
Unfortunately, I got sick and was unable to participate. The owner, James, was the most professional, prompt, attentive, and customer focused representative. He kindly refunded the costs for my scan. He was also great about helping my husband schedule his scans. Hubster (a bit of a bio geek) thought the breakdown was really cool and loved the results BodyComp provided. I appreciated the communication and professionalism. The scans are super informative and definitely something you should order as a package (so you can track body changes and progress).
