3d/4d scans

always_tired

Hi,

Has anyone had a 3D scan in the Belfast/North Down area? If so, how much did it cost and did you feel that it was worth it?

Thanks in advance

I got a 4d one done last year at 3 five two medical Lisburn, http://3fivetwo.com/services/mother-baby/4d-ultrasound-scan/100232 I thought it was really good we got lots of photos, a dvd, report and a thorough check, measurements etc. I had problems in a previous pregnancy so it really gave me the peace of mind I needed, the woman was very nice and spent so much time compared to nhs so well worth it for me.

From memory I think it cost £220 but may have gone up now (they are all around the same price in NI (much cheaper in England but unless you happen to be going over there anyway the cost of a return flight+scan would probably cost you the same)

Hope this helps

There's an older thread on this, so I'll merge the two to keep all the info together

I can confirm that 352 Medical Ltd charge £240 for a full scan. I believe there were some promotional vouchers in the Bounty packs, but these may have all been used now.

Anybody had one of these done recently. just wondering on price, whether available on saturdays or evenings and any discounts currently available

352 are still giving out leaflets with the Bounty Pack, when we phoned up it was £240 but I think you got £60 off with the leaflet inside the Bounty Pack.

Depending on what hospital you go to, if you ask nicely enough they may let you see 3D/4D for a little while, they did with me at the Royal, but I had to have loads of scans so they maybe felt sorry for me
