The U.S. Census Bureau counted 28,846 people in Glen Ellyn, IL in 2020, and about 26% are under 18. Many attend schools in Districts 41 and 89. The FDA notes that younger patients are more sensitive to radiation and that special care should be taken. Our clinicians examine a child first and order an X-ray only when the answer will change the plan.
A parent or guardian should come along. If you want to know more before the visit, the FDA suggests asking how the result will guide treatment and whether a test without radiation would work as well. For colds, ear pain and fevers, see our kids urgent visit page.

I fell cross-country skiing at Churchill Woods. Should I wait and see?
If you can walk and use the joint and the pain is easing, rest, ice and raising the limb are a reasonable start. Come in if you cannot bear weight, the pain is right over a bone, or swelling keeps growing. A clinician can examine you and decide whether an X-ray is needed.
Can a College of DuPage student without insurance get an X-ray?
Yes. Self-pay visits start at $125, and an X-ray is an added charge, so ask the front desk for the price first. Anyone not using insurance may request a Good Faith Estimate that lists the expected charges. Bring a photo ID to check in.
Will my child have to change clothes for an X-ray?
Only if clothing with metal, such as zippers, snaps or buttons, covers the area being imaged. Your child may be asked to change into a gown and remove jewelry or hair clips near that spot. A parent or guardian can stay close by and help.
