    Cheers,
    They normally don't advertise DEXA scans as such for bodyfat testign, because demand is pretty low for it. Just call any clinic that does diagnostic imaging or specifically bone density tests. I've found that if they can do those, they can do a body composition analysis using DEXA.

    Be sure to ask if they can actually do the body fat analysis because unless they specifically bought that program for it they won't be able to do it. Most clinics only have the bone density available.

    I hear Bod Pods are great, but the only two in the NYC area are in Harlem and Brooklyn College. Both locations are too far away to get me to go.
    Some people just don't want to hear the simplicity of it all, because then there's no excuse when they fail.

    I've done it in California. They're pretty accurate but it cost $40. Not $150 and $75 I see broadcasted online around nyc. That's a little pricey
