Dr. Steven Michael Defossez, MD

My philosophy centers on three things: compassion, accuracy and respect.

There is nothing more important than treating the patient compassionately. We must always treat our patients as we would like to be treated. The patient needs to be comfortable and comforted, as well as skillfully treated. This is why at MRI our staff members have been specifically trained in techniques to help our patients relax during their examinations.

Our interpretations need to be the most accurate readings possible. This requires us to earn triple the required Continuing Medical Education (CMI) hours required by law, utilize state-of-the-art equipment, and be dedicated to customer-focused service. We are committed to answering our referring physicians’ questions promptly, decisively and accurately.

We are committed to treating each and every patient with dignity and respect. This is not only necessary in our interactions with the patient, but also manifest in our efforts to see our patients on time.

I …specialize in MRI because I love people, I have a discerning eye and a decisive mind, and MRI physics fascinate me.

We offer all forms of MRI, MRA and MRCP, including musculoskeletal MRI, neuroradiologic MRI, body MRI and vascular MRI.

My hobbies include camping, bird watching, swimming and hiking.
