Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a GP referral for a private ultrasound scan?
No — you can book directly with us without a GP referral. If your GP has already recommended a scan, you’re welcome to bring their referral along, but it isn’t required to book.
How quickly can I get a private ultrasound appointment in Cheshire?
Appointments are usually available within days, rather than the weeks-long waits often seen on the NHS. Evening and Saturday clinics widen availability further.
Do you offer evening or Saturday ultrasound appointments?
Yes. We run evening appointments across Cheshire and Saturday clinics in Tarporley, alongside standard weekday availability.
Will my GP receive a copy of my ultrasound results?
Yes, if you’d like them to be. Reports are sent directly to you and/or your GP, so you can take your results straight back into NHS care if needed.
How long does an ultrasound scan take?
Most ultrasound scans take between 15 and 30 minutes, depending on the area being examined. We’ll confirm the expected duration when you book.
Is an ultrasound scan safe? Does it use radiation?
Yes, ultrasound is considered very safe. It uses sound waves rather than radiation, unlike X-ray or CT scans, which is why it’s routinely used in pregnancy monitoring as well as for investigating pain, lumps and organ concerns.
What’s the difference between an ultrasound and an MRI or CT scan?
Ultrasound uses sound waves and is best suited to soft tissue, joints, and abdominal or pelvic organs, with results often available quickly. MRI and CT use magnetic fields or radiation and are typically better suited to detailed internal or bone imaging. Our team can advise which is appropriate for your symptoms.
I’m not sure which scan I need — can you help?
Yes. If you’re unsure which type of ultrasound is right for your symptoms, use the contact form below or call us on 01829 863 331 and our team will help point you in the right direction before you book.
How much does a private ultrasound scan cost in Cheshire?
Pricing varies by scan type — see our Ultrasound Scan Pricing page for full details. We offer clear, fixed pricing with no hidden extras, and our team can confirm the exact cost for your scan before you book.
Can I book an ultrasound scan just for reassurance, without a referral or diagnosis?
Yes. Many patients book a private ultrasound simply for faster reassurance about a symptom, without needing a referral or existing diagnosis.
