We are pleased to announce extended opening times for Alderley Edge. 
Large numbers of people have been having ultrasound scans for many years, and there are no known risks.
There are no known side effects during or after the scan.There are no long term risks of having an ultrasound.The scan is just as safe for an unborn baby as for an adult.As well as being very safe, having an ultrasound is painless. All you’ll feel is a bit of pressure as the ultrasound probe passes across your skin or some slight discomfort if you need to have an internal scan
The only potential risk is with the sterile cover used on the ultrasound probe during internal scans. Make sure that you tell us if you have a latex allergy so that we can ensure the cover we use is latex free.
Although the scan itself is very safe, it is always important to consider what you might find out when you have a medical test. You could learn something significant about your health or the health of your unborn child when you have an ultrasound scan. We can help you to understand what the test is for and what it can tell you before you have the scan. We can also help you to understand your results afterwards.

The sonographer was ready as soon as I arrived, and she was extremely calming, personable and professional. The scan and blood test where efficient without feeling rushed and all very easy. These appointments can feel uneasy and make you feel anxious but I felt reassured and in professional hands the whole time
I saw Kate throughout my first pregnancy and am now doing so again with my second. She is absolutely amazing, she explains everything really clearly, and has answered all sorts of bizarre questions and worries I have had. On top of being clinically excellent she is also just the loveliest person and always a pleasure to see.

We had the harmony test with the Birth Company and had a reassurance scan with sonographer Kirsty McGarry who was absolutely lovely and really put our minds at rest. We had been scared by our NHS dating scan and left feeling like there was something wrong. We explained the situation and was treated very professionally and with good care. Also speedy appointments also as I had phone in the morning and got an appointment by afternoon. So thankful.

Really friendly, efficient service. Great experience overall. Had the Panorama. My appointment was with Kate who was absolutely fantastic. The results came really quickly. Have a comparison with private healthcare elsewhere and must say that The Birth Company was just how I would like to be treated when I pay for medical services - attentively, calmly, friendly, in a pleasant environment that doesn't look like hospital. Top marks!

The Birth Company has been excellent, providing timely scans and blood tests during my IVF treatment abroad. Staff are always friendly and extremely efficient. I would highly recommend coming here.

When I first contacted the Birth Company I spoke to Danielle. She was fantastic. She went above & beyond to put me at easy & make the journey from Kent as stress free as possible. Every staff member that myself and my husband have come into contact with have been approachable, professional and friendly. Kate scanned me the first time and put me completely at easy. Lisa on reception is professional and very approachable. Highly recommended

Donald was so lovely! I was so nervous as I have a bad history and he was super quick and confirmed my baby's heartbeat as quickly as he could. He spent time showing me the baby and the anatomy and it was the best money I have ever spent! The reception girls were lovely too - considering they deal with babies day in day out they were super excited for me! Thank you so much one and all! If only I lived in London and could have all my scans with you!
