About

How well do you think you know your body? Just like you can’t judge a book by its cover, you can’t determine what’s going on with your body just from the outside. DXA scans speak louder than a scale and are the most trusted method of determining a person’s body composition of muscle, bone, and fat. At DXA Body Composition NC, we utilize the most advanced technology in the body composition industry to provide customers with comprehensive analyses of their bodies from the inside out.

Affordable

The price per scan affords you the ability to check back in on results as you make progress with your lifestyle changes.


Safe

The scans are safe for your body, only emitting the same amount of radiation you would receive taking a stroll on a sunny day.

Accurate

DXA scans give you an accurate body composition report with information that ranges within 1-2% margin of error.


Informative

Along with your body composition scan, you will receive a personalized consultation with a DXA specialist to review your results.

My 18 year old son and I went to get our DXA scan a few days ago. Overall very nice and useful experience.Impressed by the amount of usable information in the final report and even more impressed by the explanations given by Adam. He explained all the little details and gave suggestions on how to improve. Will be back in 6 months to get another scan. Hope to see some progress by then :-)Highly recommended.

This was one of the coolest things I’ve ever done. The scan was five minutes and then afterwords we spent 20 minutes going over the results it was incredibly interesting and informative thank you!Edit: a year later and I’m still super happy with DXA. I’ve had three scans done to check my progress. I love data!

I’ve had a couple of body comp scans at this facility over the last year. The process was quick and Adam is a knowledgeable resource about the process and the results, as well as someone I felt comfortable around in a new, kinda awkward experience. I’m planning to go back again soon.

5 stars for DXA Body Composition. Incredible value that Adam and his team provides.Bone density, body fat %, fat distribution level, etc. With a short scan we can understand all this crucial data. Being aware and taking action on these metrics can help us prevent diseases. The data DXA is providing is extremely valuable.Not only do they have high tech equipment, but they take the time to walk you through your report and answer all your questions. A+ for customer service.Thank you Adam & Team

I wanted a body comp scan and called around - Adam was the nicest, had the earliest availability, and the price is the most affordable in the area. I spent maybe an hour total there, which means he took the time to thoroughly explain what the data meant and answered my questions. The scan itself was super easy and the info I got from it has been helpful, and just cool! I mean you get to see your own skeleton haha it’s awesome! Highly recommend this office!
I’ve been wanting to get a DEXA scan for a while, and I’m so happy I did it here. The scan itself is super quick, and Adam was wonderful — knowledgeable, kind, and professional. I enjoyed the time spent explaining my results in a way that made sense. I highly recommend it and can’t wait to come back in a few months to see how my progress is going!

Have been looking for a place to get this scan done to compare against other body Comp methods (caliper, tape etc) and to use as a metric to track my training and nutrition progress.Adam was fantastic, great at returning calls, sending the information ahead of time and was quick, courteous and exceptionally pleasant through the scan. He took the time to go over all the results so we understood each value and define each aspect of the report.Will definitely recommend to all my friends and gym goers as well as be a returning client myself! Thank you so much!

The Story of Dr. Stewart and DXA Body Composition of NC

Dr. Robert Stewart, M.D. has served the Durham area and surrounding communities for more than 40 years. After 20 years as a general internist, including five years at Duke University, Dr. Stewart recognized the importance of disease prevention as opposed to just disease treatment. Additionally, he recognized the high mortality associated with obesity and osteoporosis, which may be prevented with early detection by DXA testing.

To address this, Dr. Stewart, along with his wife Ruth — an RN, established Bone Health, a mobile osteoporosis testing service that utilizes DXA technology. Over the next 20 years, the service grew and provided testing in 11 counties and 22 locations and became the largest osteoporosis service in North Carolina. It soon became apparent that many patients were going untreated and were suffering osteoporotic fractures, therefore osteoporosis treatment was added to their testing services. More recently nonpharmacologic (nonprescription medicines) approaches were also added.

Most recently, as an internist, Dr. Stewart recognizes the high prevalence of obesity and associated metabolic related problems such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, and heart disease and added the ability to test visceral fat by DXA technology. DXA technology is the recognized gold standard used by the U.S. Olympic committee. DXA Body Composition of NC gives patients science-based analysis and insights about their muscle, fat, and bone density composition.
