BOOK YOUR SCAN HERE

Starlight Ultrasound is a diagnostic ultrasound and private midwife clinic meaning all our services are primarily concerned with the health and wellbeing of our users rather than souvenir or entertainment scans.
Despite being a diagnostic and medical clinic, we deliberately ensure both locations appear less clinical to maintain a welcoming, calm and reassuring environment for all visitors.
Customers and patients can access a full range of services from fertility advice, birth plans and parent education classes to antenatal and postnatal checks including home visits, breast-feeding support, blood tests and Non-invasive Pregnancy Testing (IONA and Harmony NIPT available).
In addition to fertility and pregnancy scans, Starlight also offers men's and women's general medical ultrasound scans as well as paediatric ultrasound scans for children and teenagers.

All our services are available to book online, via email, social media or over the phone.
