Frequently Asked Questions

We pride ourselves on being an inviting, relaxing, comfortable, and spacious environment for you and your family. We can fit up to 12 family members comfortably in our studio. Furthermore, we are also located in an upscale retail location rather than sterile-looking office buildings. Our studio is set up to give a feeling of being in your family’s living room. This is a special occasion; we want you to feel at home, not like you’re at a doctor’s office. Our staff is extremely friendly, with a bilingual (Spanish) member available 90% of the time.

3D, 4D, and HD ultrasound use the same frequency as your doctor uses in the normal 2D ultrasound. Ultrasounds have been used for over 35 years, and there have been no proven side effects from their proper use. We strictly adhere to the FDA’s standards.

No, we do not accept insurance because this is an elective process.

That depends on what you are looking to see. Many mothers like coming in twice: early on, 15–26 weeks, when they can see the baby as a whole, and then again at 25–34 weeks to see a more detailed face. Between 28 and 32 weeks, your baby develops more fat and gets a more defined face. After 34 weeks, it becomes more and more difficult to obtain good pictures since the baby is running out of room. However, all babies are different, and we have been successful in obtaining great images all the way up to 39 weeks.

At 14 ½ weeks, we can determine the gender with very high accuracy. If the gender cannot be seen, we invite you back for a weekday return appointment, and we will rescan you for free within the next 14 days. The need for a return visit is usually due to the baby’s position.

Most doctors recommend maintaining a healthy fluid intake, especially while you are pregnant. This will help to ensure your amniotic fluid is clear as well as full. There are many things out of the sonographer’s control, like the baby’s position, the mother’s skin type and build, the amount of amniotic fluid, etc.

Drink plenty of water (approx. 100 oz), even several days before your appointment, to ensure your amniotic fluid is clear. About a half hour before your 3D/4D ultrasound scan, try to drink a fruit juice so that your baby will be awake during your session (unless you are told not to by your physician).

Depending on the ultrasound package that you select, your session will last between 20 and 35 minutes. However, plan on spending 30 minutes to an hour at our studio so that we can send you home with memories to last a lifetime. It is best to arrive a few minutes early to fill out our paperwork.

Yes! We encourage you to bring your friends and family to share this special moment with you. Children are also welcome, and we provide them with plenty of toys and books to keep them entertained. Our ultrasound room can comfortably seat 12 people, but more are welcome if they would like to stand and watch. The ultrasound is projected onto our wall at about 100 inches so that everyone is able to see with ease.

All of our ultrasounds are conducted by certified ARDMS sonographers or ultrasound technologists who have completed a training course and have years of experience. You will be in good, qualified hands.

We currently accept major credit/debit cards and cash.
