What will your appointment include?

Women choose our private pelvic wellbeing scan for a number of reasons, and we make sure that you feel seen and respected no matter why you’re coming to visit us.

As part of your appointment with us, you’ll receive:
  • Gynaecological expertise: All of our scans are carried out by experienced sonographers who specialise in obstetrics and gynaecology. We’re able to answer your questions and present your results in a way that is clear, transparent, and reassuring. While our scans are all non-diagnostic, we can identify any concerns that you can subsequently follow up with your GP or medical provider.
  • Options based on your preference: The best results for a pelvic scan often come from a transvaginal ultrasound, which is when our ultrasound probe is covered with a sterile sheath and inserted vaginally. However, if you would prefer a transabdominal scan (via the abdomen using a conductive gel), then we can accommodate this for you.
  • Peace of mind: Our private pelvic scan can check for a wide number of symptoms or concerns, including uterine fibroids, suspected ovarian cysts, and even a position check for your coil (IUD). If there is a particular reason you’re joining us for a scan, please make your sonographer aware of this when booking your appointment.

Our first time visiting Little Peek, and we will definitely be returning for another reassurance scan later on! Such a lovely, calm atmosphere, staff lovely and friendly. Felt very welcomed. Emma was honestly so lovely and amazing, so reassuring during this scan at our 19 weeks of pregnancy, after a few concerns over the weekend that were clarified medically in other ways, but not visually. It was wonderful to see our baby girl again, happy & healthy, full of beans! Thank you so much for explaining everything to us in great detail, we honestly left feeling so happy & relaxed!

The little peek baby ultrasound team were amazing from the warm and friendly receptionist to our wonderful sonographer Emma. Emma was so friendly, reassuring and thorough. She provided me with information I didn’t know prior to the scan and gave me peace of mind. I absolutely could not recommend them more, wonderful experience.

Me and my partner are over the moon that we chose Little Peek for our baby scans. The service right from the front desk set a lovely, welcoming and calm environment which continued in the scan room. Emma was extremely patient and listened to every single worry I had about this pregnancy due to past experiences. I was reassured lots and Emma made sure she communicated through every step she was doing. Our appointments never felt rushed and to have someone so professional yet so connected to her clients needs and worries is an experience I never thought I’d be able to get. I cannot recommend Little Peek enough, especially Emma, as she made both scans feel very special❤️

This is my second visit to Little Peek Baby Ultrasound and again I am beyond happy with the service provided. Everything was explained thoroughly in detail before the scan took place. The lady that greeted us at reception was really kind and welcoming. Emma who performed the scan never disappoints. She makes the scan feel super special just now it should, and explains everything that is going on. I would recommend Little Peek to anyone who is looking for early reassurance scans, gender scans, or simply just to see their baby more often than the 2 scans offered by the NHS. Extremely reasonable prices with a very calm, warm, welcoming atmosphere. Thank you so much Emma and team, you're all wonderful!
