Our Care Quality Commission Registration
International Ultrasound Services is registered with and regulated by the Care Quality Commission — the independent regulator of health and social care in England. Our registration is public, inspectable, and verifiable by you in under a minute.
CQC Provider ID: 1-2775844974
What CQC registration actually means
The CQC monitors, inspects and regulates healthcare providers in England to ensure they meet fundamental standards of quality and safety. Registration is not a badge a clinic awards itself. It is an ongoing regulatory relationship: the CQC sets the standards we must meet, inspects our compliance, publishes its findings, and has the power to act against providers who fall short.
For you, that means an independent body — not our marketing — stands behind the care you receive here: safe premises and equipment, properly qualified and registered clinicians, safeguarding, infection control, honest reporting, and a clear route to raise concerns.
It is also the single most useful question to ask any private clinic. If a provider cannot give you a Provider ID, they are not registered.
Three checks, about a minute each
All three registers are public and free. We would rather you checked than took our word for it.
The clinic — CQC
Search cqc.org.uk for “International Ultrasound Services”, or go straight to Provider ID 1-2775844974.

What we are held to
Person-centred care
Care designed around your needs and preferences, with dignity, respect and informed consent at every stage of the appointment.
Safety and safeguarding
Safe premises and equipment, infection control, and safeguarding procedures for adults and children alike.
Fit and proper staffing
Scans performed only by registered clinicians whose qualifications and registration status are verified and published.
Duty of candour
Honest reporting, including when a scan cannot answer the question — and prompt communication of anything significant.
If something falls short
Tell us first. We take complaints seriously and respond to every one — call 0203 051 6506 or write to us, and you will get a reply.
You can also raise concerns directly with the CQC at any time via cqc.org.uk. The regulator accepts feedback about any registered provider independently of the clinic, and you do not need our permission or involvement to do it.
Choosing between clinics? Our guide to how to choose a private ultrasound clinic sets out the questions worth asking — of us as much as anyone else.
Care you can verify
A CQC-registered clinic, clinicians whose registration numbers are published, and standards set by someone other than us.
