I had been referred to a local private hospital by my GP, for an ultrasound to investigate a lump in my arm. I was told the fee would be 'approximately £400 but may be more on the day'
I don't have private health insurance and have been used to paying for private scans in the past, but only when the fees are realistic and transparent, so I was forced to look elsewhere.

A general Google search brought up IUS, and after reading the excellent reviews and all the clear information on the website, I made an appointment for the next day. The booking process was very simple, and Dr Moh was very welcoming, helpful and informative during the scan, answering any questions I had and clearly explaining the results. The report was immediately sent to my email, so I was able to share it with my doctor easily.

Instead of £400 elsewhere, the cost for the same scan and report with IUS was only £149. Excellent service all round, and highly recommended.
