Dealt with efficiently from start finish. Dr Yazbek explained everything in non medical terminology keeping me fully informed throughout the procedure.
Very welcoming and friendly Centre - I received updates as the scan was taking place and had all of my questions answered before the end of the appointment. Would highly recommend!
Had an en exceptional experience. I attended for an ultrasound with my partner, the doctors were extremely welcoming and compassionate and the nurse also made me feel very comfortable whilst having an invasive scan. Appointment on time and received my report within minutes of having my scan as well as having it all explained thoroughly before leaving my appointment. Fantastic service 🙂

I had an exceptional experience with Miss Naalia Aslam. She took the time to truly understand why I was having the scan done and my symptom. She explained the options available and the entire procedure in detail, which helped me feel more at ease. Her calm and patient nature was reassuring, especially after having two unsuccessful scans elsewhere. Miss Aslam was incredibly thorough, ensuring I was comfortable throughout the process, and she carefully explained the results to me afterward. To top it off, the detailed report was sent within an hour. I highly recommend her for anyone seeking professional and compassionate care.

Prof Davor Jurkovic was kind, professional and considerate of my comfort and modesty during the ultrasound. Explaining what was being seen on the screen as he went, he was also able to provide a diagnosis whereas I have had multiple ultrasounds previously and nothing had been found.

Caring and thorough
Response from the owner: Thank you very much for your positive review.
My first time of attending the clinic was about 4 years ago when I was referred by my consultant privately to investigate some symptoms I was having. It was an excellent experience from the beginning and I was seen by Ms Jackie Ross and received great care with adequate guidance around my condition. The procedure and treatment I received helped and the process was explained clearly. Ever since I have been able to manage my symptoms and seen some improvement over time. I have continued to attend the clinic for follow up visits with Ms Ross due to the great standard . I highly recommend the services and appreciate the care I have received. The customer service is also all round excellent with great and prompt response every time. Many thanks.

I really appreciated all that they did for me.

Have questions?
Is it possible to diagnose ectopic pregnancy on the scan?
Experienced operators are able to detect almost all ectopic pregnancies measuring more than a few millimetres in size on ultrasound scan. It is important to emphasize; however, that ectopic pregnancies tend to develop more slowly than intrauterine pregnancies and it often takes them longer to grow to the size which makes them visible on the scan. Most women with a positive pregnancy test in whom ultrasound cannot identify a pregnancy have either normal pregnancies which are younger than expected from the date of their last period or they have already suffered a miscarriage. A small proportion of these women; however, may develop small ectopic pregnancies. A blood test is usually arranged in these cases to measure the levels of pregnancy hormones in women’s blood. Based on the result of the blood test we can advise women on the likely outcome of their pregnancy and on the need for further follow up.

When can you see the baby’s heartbeat?
The earliest ultrasound can confirm the presence of a heartbeat is two weeks after a missed menstrual period or four weeks after conception. In women who conceive after IVF the heartbeat can be seen four weeks after the day of oocyte collection. Again, in order to avoid coming for the scan too early it is best to delay the attendance until two and a half to three weeks after the missed period or four and a half to five weeks after conception/oocyte collection.

How soon after a missed period can pregnancy be seen on the scan?
A normal intrauterine pregnancy can be first seen on the scan three days after a missed menstrual period. In women who fall pregnant after fertility treatment such as ovarian stimulation the pregnancy can be seen 17 days after ovulation. In women who conceive after IVF the pregnancy can be seen 17 days after the day of oocyte collection. There are, however, small variations in the timing of conception and women who wish to confirm that their pregnancy is located within the uterus are advised to delay their attendance until a week after the missed period (or three weeks after conception) to avoid coming for the scan too early. This is particularly important in women with uterine abnormalities such as fibroids or adenomyosis, which make it harder to see the pregnancy and sometimes the diagnosis may be delayed for several days.

Is it safe to have a scan in early pregnancy?
There is no evidence that ultrasound scans can harm pregnancies. It is important to ensure, however, that the energy of ultrasound beam is kept low. Use of pulsed Doppler devices to measure blood flow should be avoided in the first weeks of pregnancy as their energy output is higher compared to the ultrasound beam used for standard imaging. Our equipment is fully compliant with the international standards for safe use in pregnancy and the machine energy output is continuously monitored during the examination.

Is it possible to detect ovarian cancer on the scan?
Ovarian cancer can be accurately diagnosed on ultrasound scan. The best and most accurate way to diagnose ovarian cancer is by an expert performing a systematic and detailed examination of the tumour and the adjacent structures in the pelvis and abdominal cavity. The advantage of this approach is that it provides the information about the nature of the tumour instantly in the vast majority of cases, without the need of additional blood tests such as CA125 or MRI.

Can you see Fallopian tubes on the scan?
Normal Fallopian tubes are very thin and they cannot be routinely seen on the scan. If the tubes are damaged, they tend to fill with fluid which makes it possible to see them. Tubal patency can be tested using a procedure called HyCoSy which is described in the section on the services we offer to women with concerns about their fertility.
