Newcastle's Established Baby Scan Clinic
Three-plus years of private ultrasound in Gosforth, part of the award-winning Numi Scan group, scanning families from Heaton, Jesmond, Benton and across the Tyne & Wear region.
Three Years In, Still Treating Each Scan Like the First
Numi Scan Gosforth opened its doors at Bakers Yard a little over two years ago, and we've quietly become one of the Newcastle side of the Tyne's longer-running private ultrasound clinics. That length of time matters. It means we've seen patterns, scanned families through second pregnancies, and worked out where the awkward 12-week positions tend to settle.
We're part of the wider Numi Scan group, which last year took home Best Ultrasound Clinic at the North East Prestige Awards 2025/2026. The trophy lives with our sister clinic across the river, and we share in the recognition as part of the same family. Day-to-day, though, our focus is purely Newcastle: early pregnancy reassurance scans from seven weeks, 4D HD Live bonding scans, and the full scan packages and pricing menu, all from a single ground-floor unit with off-street parking.
Our scan room is the biggest in the local field: comfortably nine guests, two 46-inch LED TVs and a projector wall that turns the whole room into a 75-inch viewing experience. Babies wriggle, sleep, hide their faces. It happens. When they do, we've got the time, the kit and the experience to coax them round. If you're not sure which scan suits which week, our week-by-week pregnancy timeline walks through it.
Four Things We Don't Compromise On
Craft
GE Voluson hardware, calibrated routinely, paired with an experienced sonographer. Image quality is the floor, not the ceiling.
Warmth
First scans, anniversary scans, the unexpected ones, we treat every family who walks into Bakers Yard the way we'd want our own people treated.
Standards
Experienced and registered. CQC-regulated. The credentials sit on the wall because they sit at the heart of the clinic, not bolted on as an afterthought.
Honesty
Plain pricing on every package, no upselling on the bed, and a written report at the end of every visit. If we can't see it, we say so; that's why our re-scan policy exists.
Registered, Accredited, On the Wall
Private scan operators don't all carry the same credentials, and not all of them are CQC-regulated. Here's what we hold, why it matters, and what it means for the family on the bed.
Frequently Asked Questions
They are. Every sonographer scanning at our Bakers Yard clinic is experienced and professionally registered. Registration numbers appear on the bottom of every written report we hand you; see our CQC regulation page for the full clinical-standards picture.
Yes, fully. The Care Quality Commission is the independent regulator of health care in England, and our certificate is on the wall of reception at Unit 13, The Stottie Shed. Anyone can verify us at cqc.org.uk; details also live on our dedicated CQC page.
We're an independently-run location of the Numi Scan group. Sister clinics include Numi Scan Gateshead (just over the Tyne), Stansted, North London and East London. Three-plus years in we operate to group standards but every appointment, every scan and every guest in our room is purely a Newcastle affair: Heaton, Jesmond, Fenham, Walker, Byker, Benton and beyond.
The Numi Scan group picked up Best Ultrasound Clinic at the North East Prestige Awards 2025/2026, a recognition we're proud to wear as part of the family, even though the trophy lives at our sister clinic. Closer to home in Gosforth we've banked a fast-growing wall of five-star Google reviews since 2025, which feels like the more meaningful daily scoreboard.
