I saw Dr Penman for both of my pregnancies for a Nuchal Scan with Gender, then later for Late Growth scans. He was so patient when the babies weren't in the right position to get the best images, and he made sure I understood all the measurements he was taking. He answered all my questions and helped ease some worries I had. I highly recommend him!

I have seen Dr Penman a number of times throughout my pregnancy. I found that my NHS scan appointments left me with more questions than answers and wondering if my baby was okay. Dr Penman has always taken time to reassure me and answer my many questions (even ones I think are silly). I trust his opinion wholeheartedly and recommend him to all my friends. (I also have to say the 3D scans are fabulous! Even if our little girl doesn’t want to show us her best side!)
