Welcome to the department of Nuclear Medicine!

Our mission is to provide quality, personalized treatment in a caring, professional environment.

OUR SERVICES:

We offer a comprehensive service that includes diagnostic imaging, non-imaging tracer studies, cardiac stress testing as part of our myocardial perfusion studies, and bone densitometry (performed in conjunction with the Department of Endocrinology).

OUR STAFF:

We have two Nuclear physicians here at Kaiser Foundation Hospital-San Jose, as well as five Nuclear Technologists. We are supported by a team of four receptionists, who rotate in pairs weekly.

WHERE TO FIND US:

Although jokes abound about the “mythical” Nuclear Medicine department at Kaiser Foundation Hospital-San Jose, we can be found directly across the hall from the rear cafeteria entrance, behind the lab, on the lobby floor of the main hospital (250 Hospital Parkway). If all else fails, the Volunteers in the main lobby are always happy to direct patients!

HOW TO REACH US:

For appointments, advice, directions, or other information, please call us at 408-972-7264 between the hours of 10:30am and 6pm.

It is generally preferred that you bring an interpreter if you need one, thus eliminating delays. However, if that is not possible, please let us know at the time the appointment is made, so that we can make arrangements in advance.

If you think you have a MEDICAL OR PSYCHIATRIC EMERGENCY, CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY or go to the nearest hospital. DO NOT attempt to access emergency care through this web site. An emergency medical condition is a medical or psychiatric condition that manifests itself by acute symptoms of sufficient severity (including severe pain) such that you could reasonably expect the absence of immediate medical attention to result in any of the following: serious jeopardy to your health, serious impairment to your bodily functions, or serious dysfunction of any bodily organ or part. An emergency medical condition is also "active labor," which means a labor when there is inadequate time for safe transfer to a Plan hospital (or designated hospital) before delivery or if a transfer poses a threat to the health of the member or unborn child.
