This place is the worst!
The techs are not trained well in sonography or manners! The tech is not friendly or personable like you would expect at a place like this. After all this is suppose to be a very happy occasion.
I made the mistake of purchasing the 2 U/S deal (not on sale either)- one for gender at 16 wks and the other for 3D later in the pregnancy. These people called me like bill collectors until I scheduled the 3D ultrasound. They were literally harassing me; calling twice a week or more. I kept telling them I wanted to wait until later but finally on the last call they told me it was my last chance to do it and they will not allow you to do it past 29 weeks for some reason. Probably lack of training and/or cheap equipment.
I have had them done before at another place past 30 weeks and they turned out great. By that point the baby has enough meat on them to not look like a skeleton.
Anyway, because they won't allow me to go past 29 weeks I had to schedule it on the same day that I had my gestational diabetes test done. They never mentioned to me not to do that. Well my baby slept the entire time so I got about 40 of the same exact sleeping pose from the side view. Unlike what their website claims they didn't allow me to come back for free even though the session was bad.
You could tell the tech just wanted to go home. She stopped even trying to get a good pose..I had to ask for a gender shot. She kinda sighed and said she had looked before and it was hidden but after I persisted she tried again and found it. Its apparent she doesn't like to do her job or take any pride in her work.
Then the tech was really rude about having taken the test earlier that day and in a condescending tone told me that is why the baby was sleeping..and saying things like ""I don't know why people do that""..etc.. I told her it was b/c they were harassing me to come in and do this u/s and I didn't have another free day until 2 more weeks..Then she says ""yeah that would be too late.. its already really late as it is""...WTF??? What a B*!
By this point, I just wanted to leave before I went off on her. The pictures all sucked and there was not one good pic on the CD. Not to mention the crappy quality of the prints they give you! Worthless!
Don't let the cheap prices reel you in; you will get what you pay for!
