ScanAssure Medical Ultrasound had appropriate systems in place to ensure that an informed consent was obtained from clients, prior to undergoing any scan. The ultrasound scans were undertaken by a fully qualified and experienced ultrasonographer. Client's care and treatment reflected relevant research and guidance. We spoke with two clients and their partners following the scans. Comments included: “Having a scan here was great, much better than at the hospital”, " It's been very good, no complaints at all" and "The service is very good, you are not rushed and everything is explained in detail".
