Why travel to Acorn

Why patients from Aberystwyth choose us

Local diagnostic waits can stretch from weeks into months. Patients from Machynlleth, Tregaron, Borth and Llanidloes travel to us for fast, consultant-led answers.

Seen this week, not next season

Long local waiting lists for scans and injections are the main reason patients travel to us. Most are seen within 48-72 hours of booking.

Consultant radiologists

Every scan is performed and reported by a UK-registered Consultant Radiologist or specialist Sonographer. You get verbal results during the scan itself.

Scan + injection, one visit

If the scan confirms an injection would help, it can often be done in the same appointment under ultrasound guidance. One journey from Aberystwyth, sorted.

Common questions

Aberystwyth patient FAQs

How much does a private ultrasound cost near Aberystwyth?
A single-area consultant-led ultrasound is £260; two areas £360. The price includes the scan, verbal results during the appointment, and a written report within 24-48 hours. No hidden extras.
How long will I wait for an appointment?
Most appointments are available within 48-72 hours, and same-week is standard. Compare that with local diagnostic waits that can run to months, and the 2 hours 15 minutes journey from Aberystwyth pays for itself in time saved.
Can I have the scan and the injection on the same day?
Usually, yes. If the consultant confirms an injection would help, it can often be performed under ultrasound guidance in the same visit. One trip from Aberystwyth, diagnosis and treatment done.
Do I need a GP referral?
Not for adult ultrasound scans; you can self-refer online. For injections a referral is preferred but not mandatory. If an injection turns out not to be appropriate, you only pay the £120 consultation fee rather than the full injection price.
Will my own GP or physio accept the report?
Yes. Reports are written by UK-registered Consultant Radiologists and accepted by GPs, consultants and physiotherapists. With your permission we can send the report directly to your clinician in Aberystwyth.
Is the clinic accessible from Machynlleth?
Yes; patients travel to us from across Machynlleth, Tregaron, Borth and Llanidloes. Diagnostic waits in mid Wales can be long. Many Ceredigion patients travel to us for same-week scans with results on the day. One trip, answers in hand.
