Booked an early pregnancy scan, and they were sensational! Bent over backwards to make sure we had an appointment time that worked for us, even came in early so that we could have the scan on the day we wanted. Dr Gupta was so knowledgeable, reassuring, funny and kind. So many words of encouragement and wisdom. Would highly recommend!

Excellent prompt, detailed, and explanatory scan with follow up written report the following day. Saved a lot of waiting time for an NHS MSK ultrasound scan and so helped to moved things along considerably. Very kind and courteous treatment. Highly recommended.

We had a very good experience with Dr Gupta, baby was very stubborn at our 4D scan and we were offered a free rescan where we still couldn't see baby well but he gave us multiple opportunities to go for a walk to get baby to move to get better photos.
