and restoration companies. No completion date has been set
and operational details related to the occupancy of the facility
have not yet been finalized except for the commitment to
continue to provide health services at the site, which is located

Imaging center provides comfortable, quality care
Lifelong care
When Minnie Lucille “Lucy” Cline was diagnosed with breast cancer
in 1999, she was already comfortable with the caregivers who
conducted her imaging tests at Southeastern Radiology Associates,
then known as Lumberton Radiology Associates, or LRA.
Cline, 76, a lifelong resident of Lumberton, had routinely received
imaging testing at the center to include annual screening
mammograms starting at around age 40 as well as X-rays for her
knee, back and chest over the years.
“It feels good to know that people care and it makes you feel
Southeastern Radiology Associates Radiologist comfortable,” said Cline. “I am glad that there is someone that I
Dr. Jim Parker recognize and remember their face, even though I may not know
their name.”
Cline says she feels the warmth when she walks in the door.
“Everyone there has been so nice. They look at me and say ‘you’re back!’ and have even offered to give me my own chair,” added
Cline.
Just last month, Cline’s physician at Gibson Cancer Center sent her back to Southeastern Radiology Associates to have a
sonogram on a spot they detected during her annual check-up. She once again found comfort in being familiar with those who
were performing her test. She was relieved to receive word on August 14 from General Surgeon Dr. Samuel Britt of Southeastern
Surgical Center that she did not have cancer again and that everything was clear.
The providers affiliated with Southeastern Radiology Associates feel passionate about their patients and the community in which
they serve and where most have lived for many years.
"I've personally read over 43,000 mammograms and 4,000 breast ultrasounds since coming to Lumberton over 20 years ago,
helping to find 467 breast cancers,” said Southeastern Radiology Associates Radiologist Dr. Jim Parker. “But patients are more
than just numbers, and I am only one part of a team. I am proud of the work we do, and humbled by the trust that the women of
Robeson County have placed in our facility and our people for so long." (cont. to next page)
