Ultrasound scan: NHS wait for the test 3 weeks
Diagnostic ultrasound scan for soft tissue, abdominal, pelvic, MSK or vascular assessment. People waiting for an NHS ultrasound scan (non-obstetric) in England had waited a median of 3.0 weeks for the test, and 21.7% had waited 6 weeks or more (NHS England diagnostic waiting times, August 2026). That is the wait for the test itself, not for treatment. No major private hospital group publishes a quotable price for this procedure.

Important context
NHS waiting-time figures are published at trust or specialty level. Private prices are read from individual hospitals’ own published price lists and cover a few named hospital groups rather than the whole private market; each operator defines its own inclusions, so their figures are shown separately and not averaged. Local eligibility, referral route, clinical urgency, provider package and insurance status can change the real-world choice. TreatCompare is for comparison only and is not medical, legal or financial advice.

- Choosing where you are referred. In most cases NHS patients in England have the legal right to choose the hospital or service they are referred to, including many private hospitals that provide services to the NHS (NHS.uk). NHS-funded waits at those providers are not self-pay waits.

Nuffield Health, Ramsay Health Care UK and Spire Healthcare publish no price for ultrasound scan
These are the 3 operators whose published price lists we read — 105 of their 116 UK hospitals publish one — and none prices this procedure in a way that can be quoted. Where a price is listed at all it is banded by an internal code with nothing published to say what each band covers, so there is no figure we can honestly attach to this procedure. Other operators may publish one; we do not yet read them, and we would rather say that than imply the market is silent.
Ask the hospital for a written quote before booking. The NHS waiting-time figures on this page are unaffected — those come from NHS England and cover every trust.
