Knee pain can be caused by many different soft-tissue issues, including tendon problems, ligament sprains, inflammation, bursitis, cysts, post-injury changes, or degenerative conditions. Ultrasound allows us to assess these structures dynamically - even while you move, giving an accurate view of what’s happening inside your knee.

If you’re experiencing pain when walking, climbing stairs, squatting, or after sport, or if your knee feels swollen, unstable, or stiff, a diagnostic ultrasound can help give you fast and clear answers.

• Suspected meniscal cyst
• Quadriceps or patellar tendinopathy
• Patellar tracking issues
• Knee bursitis (prepatellar, suprapatellar, infrapatellar)
• Swelling, effusion or suspected inflammation
• Ligament sprains (MCL, LCL)
• Baker’s cyst assessment
• Post-surgical monitoring
• Pain following a fall, twist, or sports injury

 You can book directly – no referral is needed (although they are accepted). If you self-refer, we will start with a new patient consultation to ensure ultrasound is appropriate for your condition.

Your appointment includes:

• Clinical history and safety screening
• High-resolution diagnostic ultrasound scan of the knee
• Full written report, typically within 48 working hours
• Advice on next steps and referral options if required
   

Ultrasound is safe, comfortable, and radiation-free - and ideal for soft-tissue knee injuries.

 While ultrasound is excellent for visualising soft tissues, it cannot:

• Assess deep meniscal tears inside the joint
• Assess cruciate ligaments (ACL / PCL)
• Visualise deep cartilage surfaces
• Assess bone marrow or internal joint structures
   

If MRI or X-ray would be more appropriate, we’ll explain why and guide you to trusted private partners.

• Short waiting times
• Talk directly to a specialist before, during & after your scan
• GCC-registered clinician
• Experienced musculoskeletal sonographer with PgC in Medical Ultrasound
• Clinical report typically within 48-working hours
• Serving Tenby, Pembrokeshire & all of West Wales
   

We combine accurate diagnosis with clear guidance - so you know exactly what to do next.
