New locations for UK-Radiology private MRI scans
UK Radiology is a partnership of seven UK based consultant radiologists in NHS and private practice in Herefordshire.The partnership offers expert low cost private radiology and scans, including CT, ultrasound, isotope scans and MRI scans, with prices from only £200 for a one area MRI scan and report. They also offer private aortic aneurysm screening for just £50.Income for private patients is shared with the local NHS Trust and helps improve services and facilities for NHS patients.Referrals from thoughout the UK are welcome and patients from as far as Scotland and Cornwall have already taken advantage of the low cost, high quality personal service.UK Radiology has now extended its MRI service by negotiating with the UK's premier quality MRI provider to make use of excess capacity. Two new locations have been agreed, Wolverhampton, West Midlands, conveniently located for Birmingham and the motorway network, and Ipswich, Suffolk, convenient for Cambridgeshire, Essex and Norfolk. More are anticipated and the aim is for UK-wide coverage.MRI scans in Hereford cost just £200 for one area and are reported within one working day. At other locations there is a £50 surcharge and the report will take a day or two longer but this still represents excellent value and service compared to other UK providers and is compensated for by savings on transport costs and time.Private CT scans, ultrasound, isotope scans and plain X-rays are currently only available in Hereford but watch this space!Patients and referrers interested in using the service should visit the main UK Radiology (www.uk-radiology.co.uk) where referral forms and full contact details are available.
