Our Values: Why Preventative Screening & Medical Imaging Matters So Much to Us post

For most people, work is just work. It’s a paycheck and even a way to get through the day. For us, Life Guard Imaging is personal. We’re here because of a loss—a loss that shouldn’t have happened. A loss that changed everything—one that could have been prevented with preventative medical imaging, the very tool we now use to help others avoid the same fate.

Our founder, Frankie Maldonado, lost his father nearly 25 years ago to pancreatic cancer. A disease that, if caught earlier, might not have taken him so soon. His father—a doctor himself—spent his life saving others, yet when it was his turn, the technology available at the time missed the signs. It wasn’t because he didn’t seek care. It wasn’t because he didn’t take his health seriously. It was because the right tools didn’t exist for early detection. So, we created Life Guard Imaging to change that.

We’re on a Mission to Save Lives

Too many people accept the idea that if a disease is meant to take them, it will. That heart disease, cancer, and other deadly conditions are simply out of their hands. We refuse to accept that—because it’s not true.

We now have the ability to see what wasn’t visible before. To detect the earliest signs of heart disease, lung cancer, liver tumors, kidney disease, and more—before symptoms ever appear. And when you catch something early? Everything changes.

We’ve seen it firsthand. The husband who got a scan at his wife’s urging, only to discover a life-threatening blockage—before it became a heart attack. The mother whose scan revealed lung nodules she never would have known about, allowing her to start treatment while there was still time. These are real people and real lives changed. For us, that’s the only thing that matters.

Preventative Screening: The Power to Protect Your Future

If you could know what’s happening inside your body before a problem starts, wouldn’t you want to? Our scans provide powerful insights:

  • Early disease detection: Enabling you to act before symptoms appear.
  • A way to track changes over time: With our Legacy Imaging, we monitor your scans year after year.
  • Peace of mind: Knowing is always better than wondering.
  • A longer future with the people you love: Prevention is the key to more time.

Take Control of Your Health—Because You Can

You don’t have to wait for symptoms. You don’t have to wait until it’s too late. You have the power to do something now. At Life Guard Imaging in Tampa, we’re here to help you do just that. Call us at (866) 985-6909 to book your full-body scan today. A clear look at what’s happening inside your body is power information. It’s the key to living the longest, healthiest life possible.
