I am often asked how long I spend scanning a dog or a cat. I take as long as is necessary to obtain an accurate result, and I set aside 30 minutes to see each client. Sorry but I don't offer a walk in service and you need to make an appointment, although I can sometimes offer you an appointment the same day, it is adviseable to book in advance.
Please respect my neighbours when visiting my property and not block their drive. Our own drive is also in constant use as we have an annexe in our garden where my father lives and can you ensure you do not obstruct the gates, thank you.
Pregnancy can be confirmed with an estimated due date from 27 days from ovulation, or 28 days after the last mating, although optimum results are achieved from around day 32 - 35 of your bitch's pregnancy. I can scan earlier than 28 days if you have concerns over an unusual discharge from your bitch. If I see anything abnormal I will refer you to your vet with scan images. Below is a later stage scan done on a cat.
Please note, I have not increased my prices along with inflation, and in order to stay cheaper than anyone else in the area I do ask that if you cannot keep your appointment or you need to cancel at the last minute and I cannot fill your slot, you pay for future scans at the time of booking.

A RVN writes - Let's talk blood sampling? When training for my qualification as a Registered Veterinary nurse and becoming a regulated professional, blood sampling was taken very very seriously. Lots of training, health and safety, theory and practice. I wasn't allowed to sample an awake patient until my mentors were confident in my ability. Through training I earnt my skills and worked hard to perfect technique. I take the importance of professionalism and regulation very seriously and am held to my code of conduct and oath. But why is any of this important? Quite simply if something goes wrong, I am accountable. It isn't "just a blood sample" it's a schedule 3 procedure. Under the veterinary surgeons act 1966, blood samples can only be taken by a veterinary surgeon or a veterinary nurse directed by a veterinary surgeon. The animal in question MUST be under the care of the vet. It's really that simple. So what does this mean? At home blood sampling is illegal unless by a vet/supervised vet nurse. Progesterone testing by a non vet or supervised vet nurse...... Is illegal. The "breeder qualifications" currently suggesting and training people to blood sample...are directing people to break the law. Under the Veterinary Surgeons Act 1966 it is illegal for anyone not suitably qualified and regulated to take venous blood samples of animals... Unless its a badger

'Went to Julie this morning with my girl for a second opinion. I had a feeling that a recent scan was not accurate. My girl was mated and the stud owner recommended the clinic for AI and I chose to have her scanned to confirm pregnancy. The lady found a nodule just below the "spleen" but wasn't confident to confirm pregnancy and advised to re-scan in 5 days (I must add second scan was to be free) Took her again and she focused on the same nodule to confirm pregnancy. Something just didn't feel right with me. How could the same blip on the screen ,that had seen no change at all in 5 days, now confirm a pregnancy? She advised me of the possibility of absorption and I went o my way. Days later I still didn't feel my girl was in pup..we had tried a number of time and this was to be her last go. I contacted Julie who was happy to see us the same day. She was lovely and understanding and also sorry to confirm that ,indeed,my fears were right and Ember wasn't in pup. She even showed me scans of what she would expect to see if puppies were present and also pointed out that what had been described to me as a spleen was actually the bladder. Forget your high tec clinics and stick with the people who know what they're doing !! Julie not only explained about Ember but is also compassionate about the responsibility she has when advising her clients. It was hardly surprising my previous scanner went right to the explanation that the pup had been absorbed. However I advised her the nodule she saw is still present but was never a pup as no fetal sac is present !! Needless to say communication has ceased. Thank you Julie for confirming what I knew and the responsible care you took in advising me. I will happily recommend you to everyone'

'Julie booked my cat in for a scan at very short notice, she kindly scanned my cat and was able to confirm heartbeats, movements, dates and reassure me that all was going as expected, can’t thank Julie enough for her kindness and all her help'

'After weeks of worry and wondering if my dog is pregnant, Julie confirmed it with an ultrasound. I was worried and concerned about how to deal with it as I have no breeding experience! Julie was amazing and reassured me, giving me plenty of advice! Knowing that I can speak to Julie about my concerns helps me and I’m confident that we can get through the whole pregnancy, labour and raising our new precious pups! I would recommend Julie to anyone! She is so easy to talk to and the mother to be was so relaxed and at ease with her.'
