Book Your Upper Abdominal Ultrasound Scan

• Fast for 4 hours before your appointment (water is fine)
• Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows easy access to your abdomen

What to bring: photo ID, your booking confirmation, any previous scan reports or imaging, a list of current medications, and your insurance details if claiming.

Do I need a GP referral?
No. You can self-refer and book directly online or by phone. You are welcome to share your report with your GP afterwards.

How much does it cost, and which insurers do you accept?
£235 all-inclusive, with no hidden fees. We accept AXA Health, AXA Global, Healix and WPA, and can provide an itemised invoice for your claim.

How quickly will I get my results?
You receive instant verbal results from your clinician at the end of the appointment, and your written report within 24 hours by secure email.

Can I cancel or reschedule?
Yes — free of charge up to 24 hours before your appointment. Within 24 hours a cancellation fee may apply.

Why do I need to fast before an abdominal scan?
Fasting reduces gas in the bowel and ensures the gallbladder is distended, which significantly improves image quality for the liver, gallbladder and surrounding structures. Arriving without fasting may result in a limited examination.

Is my appointment confidential?
Yes. Appointments and reports are handled in full compliance with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018, and nothing is shared with your GP or any third party without your written consent.
