Ultrasound
Reflected sound waves are used to image the soft tissues of your body. Ultrasound can be used to image the abdomen, pelvis (including obstetrics and gynaecology), blood vessels and musculoskeletal soft tissues. Ultrasound is an extremely safe and painless procedure.

What Our Patients Say About PRP
I would just like to thank the staff and Doctors, especially the sonographer who conducted my ultrasound yesterday. They were very professional and made an uncomfortable problem (for me) an easy and hassle free examination. Please pass on my gratitude.
