What have you found so far?
 
It might help to know a little bit more about what you're looking for. By diagnostic facilities do you mean x-rays only? Or does this include nuclear medicine clinics where you work with unsealed sources?

As a general survey meter for photon sources in a radiation therapy facility we use a Fluke ion chamber device that we're pretty happy with:
