Private ultrasound scans in England

Ultrasound uses sound waves to look at soft tissue and blood flow in real time. There is no radiation and no injection, and you usually get the scan and report on the same visit.

When this scan is used

  • Abdomen
    Liver, gallbladder, kidneys.
  • Pelvis
    Pelvic pain, menstrual symptoms.
  • Thyroid or neck lumps
    A lump you can feel.
  • Vascular Doppler
    Blood flow in the legs or neck.

Your GP will confirm on the pre-scan call that this is the right scan for your symptoms. If something else would answer the question better, we change it before you pay the balance.

REPORTED AND EXPLAINED

Every scan is read by a consultant radiologist

The report comes to us, and your GP calls you to explain what it shows, what it means for your symptoms and what should happen next.

How results work

A typical scan

From booking to results

  1. 01

    Book online

    Choose your scan and centre. A £25 booking fee secures your GP call and comes off the price.

  2. 02

    Speak to a GP

    A GMC-registered GP phones you to check the scan is right for you and safe to go ahead.

  3. 03

    Have your scan

    We send the referral. The imaging centre contacts you to arrange a date — scans are not on the same day.

  4. 04

    Get your results

    A consultant radiologist reports the scan and your GP talks you through what it means.
