5* service, professional and kind. Everyone was so lovely and it really made the difference to put me at ease.
All the staff at the facility are incredibly professional and helpful, from the receptionists, nurses to the consultants. The gynaecologist who performed my scan explained very clearly was she was seeing, what she was going to look at next - this transparency of information is nothing I have experienced before, even in other private health clinics. The report and associated scan images were in my email inbox within 30 minutes of me leaving the clinic, as promised! Overall, an amazing service from start to finish and I would highly recommend to anyone.

Very friendly and caring. I felt well-looked after and procedures were well explained. All results and reports received on the same day as the procedure.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for leaving us a positive review.
The quality of a scan was very good.However my appointment was delayed on 30 minutes and I was not notified about it. When I arrived I was told that my appointment was going to be delayed on 10 minutes. If I knew that I need to wait for 30 minutes, I would reschedule it as I had a trip planned and needed to catch my train.
Response from the owner: Dear Ms Elistratova,I am sorry to hear that your appointment was delayed when you came to our centre. We endeavour to keep all of our clinics running to time, however, we unfortunately cannot anticipate if an appointment is going to run over due to a medical finding that needs further attention.Nonetheless, I apologise for the stress caused by having to wait longer than expected when you had a train to catch.Please don't hesitate to contact me on 020 7725 0521 if you wish to discuss this further.Best wishes,Daniela
Very kind staff and very efficient registration, nursing support etc.

A really good 1st experience for me.The Dr and nurse were very clear with what they would do in the scan and made me feel very reassured. After the scan, I sat with the Dr, where he explained the findings and that he would send this report to my fertility clinic for them to discuss next steps with me. The building is beautiful, it was all a very positive experience and I would highly recommend. Thank you so much.

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.
