Jay J. Vlaminck, MD

As a diagnostic radiologist, Dr. Vlaminck reads and interprets medical images to detect and treat disease or injury in internal organs, tissues, and bone. Specifically, he specializes in interpreting X-rays, mammograms, ultrasounds, MRI scans, CT scans, and nuclear medicine scans, including PET. He is also skilled in image-guided medical procedures such as inserting catheters in veins, draining abscesses, or performing biopsies; which can be much safer and faster with the aid of imaging technology.

Dr. Jay Vlaminck received his doctorate in medicine from the University of Minnesota Medical School. He then completed a four-year residency in diagnostic radiology at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.

In describing his approach to patient care, Dr. Vlaminck says, "I want patients to feel as comfortable as possible with their imaging tests, so I take the time to describe what to expect, explain results, and answer questions."

He adds: "I believe it is an honor and a privilege to serve patients and I want that to show in my work every day."
