Wellington Ultrasound

Welcome to Wellington Ultrasound, located at 155 The Terrace in New Zealand. As an establishment focused on health and a point of interest in the area, we are dedicated to providing top-notch ultrasound services for our patients.

Ultrasound is a non-invasive imaging technique that allows us to assess the structure and function of internal organs in real time. It is often one of the first types of diagnostic imaging used due to its safety and ability to assess various body parts. Our skilled team of doctors and sonographers utilize ultrasound to examine the abdomen, breasts, kidneys, prostate, scrotum, thyroid gland, and assess blood flow through the vascular system.

In particular, we specialize in obstetric ultrasound, which is an essential diagnostic tool during pregnancy. Detecting any medical problems in both the mother and baby is crucial for proper management and, in some cases, the initiation of antenatal treatment. Ultrasound can help identify common concerns such as chromosomal abnormalities, small baby, pre-eclampsia, and structural problems with the baby. Seeing a healthy baby on the scan brings reassurance and strengthens the bond between parents and their unborn child.

At Wellington Ultrasound, we take pride in our expertise in tertiary gynaecology and fertility ultrasound. Ultrasound is considered an essential first-line investigation for many suspected gynaecological conditions, as it provides efficient and safe imaging of the female pelvic organs.

One of our important services is the Nuchal Translucency (NT) scan, commonly known as the '12-week scan'. This scan not only screens for Down Syndrome and other conditions but also assesses the overall development of your baby, offering reassurance to both you and your Maternity Carer that the pregnancy is progressing well. Our team of certified doctors and sonographers are highly trained in this scan and are equipped to address any concerns that may arise.

Expectant mothers can find comfort in knowing that all necessary counseling and tests can be arranged on-site. Our Fetal Medicine Specialist, Dr. Marlow, will provide information and support throughout your journey. If invasive testing is chosen or required, our team can promptly arrange it for you.
