Frequently Asked Questions
Not at all. Every scan at our Gosforth clinic is self-referral: book directly online or ring us on 0191 380 0402 and we'll find you a slot, often the same day or next day. There's no NHS paperwork, no GP letter, and nothing to chase. If you'd like the full breakdown of how UK private ultrasound works without a referral, our step-by-step guide walks through everything.
Yes, and most private clinics in the UK operate this way, including ours. Because Numi Scan Gosforth is CQC-regulated and our scans are performed by experienced and registered sonographers, the clinical pathway is the same standard you'd get on the NHS. The only practical difference is you book it yourself rather than wait for a referral.
No, and we'd never suggest it should be. Your NHS dating and anomaly scans are the diagnostic gold standard for screening fetal anomalies, and you should always attend them. What private scans add is the things the NHS isn't designed to give you: an extra reassurance look at 7–9 weeks, a 4D HD Live face on the 28-week sweet spot, longer appointments, more guests, photos and digital images you actually own. Our side-by-side NHS vs private guide spells out exactly when each one helps.
Outside of the routine NHS dating and 20-week anomaly scans, getting an extra ultrasound on the NHS often means weeks of waiting, assuming you qualify in the first place. At our Gosforth clinic, an early pregnancy reassurance scan, gender scan or 4D bonding scan can usually be booked within 24–48 hours, and often on the day you call us.
Our entry-level Wellbeing & Reassurance Baby Scan starts at £65. The Early Pregnancy Viability Scan is £89, the Early Dating Pregnancy Scan £75 and the Early Pregnancy Reassurance Scan £68, the Gender Baby Scan £68, the standard 4D Baby Scan £78, and the premium Luxury 4D Baby Scan £135. For DNA-based testing our NIPT Test starts from £280 (three tiers, Standard, Advance, Absolute) and the Early Gender Blood Test from £125. Full breakdown on the packages and pricing page; UK-wide context in our private ultrasound cost guide.
We're tucked into Unit 13 of The Stottie Shed at Bakers Yard, just off Christon Road in Gosforth (NE3 1XD), a few minutes from Gosforth town centre and close to the Regent Metro Centre. There's £1 off-street parking right outside (up to 3 hours), step-free ground-floor access, and frequent buses along Great North Road and Gosforth High Street. See the location page for the map, directions and bus routes.
Yes: Numi Scan Gosforth is registered with and inspected by the Care Quality Commission, the body that oversees clinical standards across NHS and private healthcare in England. Every sonographer is experienced and professionally registered. The CQC regulation page covers exactly what that means for your appointment.
Quick version: 3D gives you a still photo-style render of baby's face; 4D adds movement, so you watch baby in real time; HD Live adds photorealistic lighting that softens skin and brings facial detail closer to a baby photo than a clinical scan. Every 4D scan at our Gosforth clinic includes HD Live as standard. The bonding sweet spot is 26–30 weeks, the 28-week milestone guide explains why.
Up to nine. Our scan suite is one of the most spacious you'll find in Newcastle: there's comfortable sofa seating, two 46-inch LED TVs and a projector wall, so partners, grandparents, older children and best friends can all see your baby clearly at the same time. Full appointment detail is on the Your Visit page.
It happens. Babies wriggle, sleep, hide their faces. If we can't capture what you booked the scan for, gender on a Gender Baby Scan, a clear face on a 4D scan, we'll bring you back free of charge for a follow-up scan, Monday to Friday, within two weeks.
Our earliest reliable ultrasound is from 6 weeks (read the 6-week scan milestone guide for what to expect). The Early Pregnancy Viability Scan covers 6–9 weeks, the Early Dating Pregnancy Scan 8–12 weeks and the Early Pregnancy Reassurance Scan covers 10–14 weeks. If you want to know baby's gender as early as possible, the DNA-based Early Gender Blood Test works from 7 weeks.
We do. The Growth and Presentation Scan (£79, from 24 weeks) checks baby's position, growth measurements, amniotic fluid levels, placenta location, useful both for late-pregnancy reassurance and for birth planning if you're weighing up a vaginal vs C-section delivery. The 36-week milestone guide goes into detail on the third-trimester scan window.
