Louise Wicks 1 review 4 months ago- I’ve been to see Nathan on multiple occasions for reassurance during my pregnancy. I cannot recommend Nathan and what he does enough! Throughout my journey these scans have brought me such reassurance and relief through periods of when I needed it most. My appointments have at times been impulsive but Nathan has always tried to accommodate and fit me in at the drop of a hat to which I’m so grateful! The feeling that I don’t have to wait weeks for scans through the NHS brings me so much relief when I have just minor niggles or I just merely want to see my baby is amazing! …

Chris Bedwell recommends Numi Scan. 3 November 2019 · There are not enough words to say how amazing this place is. Nathan is not only one of the nicest people you will ever meet, but the service he provides is outstanding. The clinic is welcoming and the scan room is comfortable. My wife and I have been for two appointments - one for a 10 week scan and the most recent was today, a 16 week (plus 3 day), gender confirmation scan. Although baby was facing away from the scan, Nathan was able to confirm the gender of the baby.…
