Newcastle Ultrasound is 2 km away in Lambton. A referral is not usually tied to a single practice — ask if you would rather go elsewhere.

In its own words, the practice offers Computed Tomography (CT), Ultrasound and X-Rays. We keep provider-published service names inside the scope of what the register accredits, so a chain's national menu never becomes a claim about this branch.
