Private ultrasound scans offer faster access, more choice of appointment time and usually more time with the sonographer or radiologist to discuss the findings, so many people use private scans alongside NHS care when they need speed and convenience.
Ultrasounds are often recommended by doctors, surgeons, and other healthcare providers if you are experiencing symptoms that require visualization of internal organs, such as pain in a specific area, skin changes, or to monitor certain diseases. If you believe you need an ultrasound, please consult with your doctor or contact us for advice.
