"Best in Bolton even during Covid 19"

I came for a ultrasound scan with ScanAssure back in January time after being sent by my doctor. I was initially due to go else where but the company that should have done that scan told me there was a 8 week wait. Not wanting to wait that long i contacted ScanAssure who told me thay could scan me within 7 days and in Bolton. The scan went ahead and the chap who did they scan explained that the body part the doctor had asked him to scan looked fine and did the report. He explained to me he thought the pain i was experiencing was referred pain and would like to do another scan as he was confident he knew what my problem was, but without a referral from the doctor for that specific body part he was unable to do that scan. I returned to my doctor and asked for a new referral. This was sent to the original company I was due to go to back in January, despite me insisting I would like to go back to ScanAssure. My scan was booked with the other company. I appreciate its difficult times for all but my scan was cancelled 4 times. 4 times i took time off work and 4 times it was cancelled. I contacted ScanAssure personally and was told there Scans were still going ahead, adhering to strict Cornoavirus guidelines and safety precautions. My scan took place 3 days later, the same guy who my first scan, was wearing protective equipment and he diagnosed my straight away with what he though I had several weeks ago. I can now get the treatment I need and stop worrying. Thanks again, truly are the best.
