CHECK OUT WHAT OTHERS HAVE TO SAY
Look at what John Higdon, DVM had to say about his Flexx Ultrasound:
“My ReproScan Flexx has been a great addition to my practice to gain more equine and bovine clients. I have used it a lot for pregnancy diagnosis in cattle, horses, sheep and goats and will also carry it into the small animal practice for a few things with dogs. It is also a very helpful piece of equipment to have on hand for a colic workup. My favorite thing about the Flexx is the flexibility of the machine (pun not intended). I am able to utilize it for multiple species and the variable probes allow me to use it for more than just rectal pregnancy diagnosis. Farmers’ kids really enjoy it as well when I get to show them a fetal heart beat from a foal. I have been very happy with the repro-arm to save my arm and shoulder and save time getting in and out of the chute when pregnancy checking a larger number of cows as well.”

Or check out what Karen Saintsing, DVM had to say about using her Flexx in her own practice:
“I still am in love with my machine! All my clients love it and everyone is generally impressed! At this point I have ultrasounded probably close to 5,000 sheep/goats and many cattle too! I can’t think of a better use of my money or a better machine for what I wanted!”

FLEXX Reminders
If you already have the Flexx Ultrasound, here are some tips and reminders.
1. Probably the most important reminder: Make sure your machine is turned OFF before switching probes.
2. Keep a probe plugged into the machine when being stored. This keeps dirt and grime out of the port.
3. Only use the charger that came with your ReproScan ultrasound machine. Other chargers could damage your mainboard.
4. Continue to clean your machine with a damp cloth after each use, especially when switching between probes.
5. Keep probe covers on each probe when not in use. This will save you from future probe repairs!
There are several different tips and tricks up our sleeve, so if you have any further questions about your Flexx ultrasound, please do not hesitate to give us a call. We would love to help in any way we can.
