When something doesn’t feel right, waiting weeks for a scan can be worrying and disruptive. At samedaydoctor Canary Wharf, we work with trusted diagnostic partners to arrange private imaging quickly.

Whether you need a chest X-ray, an abdominal ultrasound, or more detailed cross-sectional scans (e.g. CT, MRI, Ultrasound, Echocardiogram), we’ll guide you through what’s needed and help you get the answers without delay.

If you’re experiencing ongoing symptoms, have been injured, or need further investigation after blood tests or a consultation, imaging can provide crucial clarity.

Your referral starts with a consultation at our Canary Wharf clinic or remotely by phone or video. Your GP will listen carefully to your symptoms, assess whether imaging is needed, and explain which type of scan is most appropriate.

If imaging is advised, we’ll arrange your referral to a local private imaging centre with speed and care.

Once your scan is complete, results are typically available within 24–48 hours or sooner, if urgent. Your results will be reviewed by your GP, who will explain the findings clearly and advise on any next steps.
