Do I need an appointment?
Yes our ultrasound sessions are by appointment only. You can schedule online on our pricing and packages page or call 845-875-7554. Same day appointments are usually available.
Is ultrasound safe for me and my baby?
Yes. Ultrasound has been performed and studied for over 40 years, there is no known evidence of harm to baby or mother. The American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine (AIUM) asserts that “No confirmed biological effects on patients or instrument operators due to exposure at the typical intensities of current diagnostic ultrasound equipment have ever been reported.” To prioritize the safety and comfort of both mother and baby, Angel Vision Ultrasound Studio strictly follows FDA guidelines concerning recommended time limits for ultrasounds and scanning durations.
Can I bring family and friends to my ultrasound session?
Yes you can bring up to 10 people along with you. We wholeheartedly encourage our clients to invite family and friends to join them for their elective 3D/4D ultrasound session. This is a joyful and memorable experience that can be shared with your loved ones.
Do you take medical insurance?
No we do not take medical insurance. Since this is an elective procedure you will need to pay the cost of this ultrasound as an out-of-pocket expense. We accept Cash, Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Venmo and Apple Pay.
What is an elective ultrasound?
We provide elective 3D/4D/5D prenatal ultrasounds to foster a positive bonding experience for mothers, fathers, and family members with their unborn baby. At Angel Vision Ultrasound Studio, our ultrasounds are elective and non-diagnostic, meaning they are not intended to identify any abnormalities. A routine ultrasound should be conducted by your doctor to determine the gestational age of the fetus and to screen for any potential fetal anomalies and essential anatomical features.
Can this take the place of an ultrasound at my doctor’s office?
Expectant mothers should rely exclusively on a medical diagnostic ultrasound prescribed by their healthcare provider to confirm their due date, screen for fetal anomalies, and address any other pregnancy-related issues. Please remember that elective prenatal exams are not a substitute for a thorough diagnostic ultrasound.
What will I see during the session?
**Weeks 7-13:** We offer early glimpses of your baby, allowing you to see your little one in full and observe the heartbeat.
**Weeks 13-20:** During this period, we can capture full-body images and determine your baby’s gender (most accurately after 16 weeks). It’s an exciting time to witness your baby kicking and turning.
**Weeks 21-30:** You’ll be able to see a clearly defined face, complete with yawning and waving.
**Weeks 31-37:** At this stage, your baby will display a full face and adorable chubby cheeks.
What if my baby is hiding and I don’t get any good pictures?
Included in our packages such as Gold Vision and Platinum Vision if we are unsuccessful in getting baby to show it’s face, we will have you come back at a later date free of charge.
What can I do to get good images of my baby?
Stay hydrated! The more water you drink, the more amniotic fluid will surround your baby, resulting in clearer images. This fluid serves as a lens to enhance visibility. We recommend drinking extra water for a few days leading up to your appointment.
How comes some people’s ultrasound are clearer than others?
Please note that scan images may differ from those you have seen elsewhere or even from our studio. Each baby is unique, and factors such as gestational age, position, amount of amniotic fluid, placental location, and the mother’s body type can all influence the results. However, we are committed to making every effort to capture the best images possible.
