Steve and his company are extremely knowledgeable in all things ultrasound. I've purchased a machine, training twice, and they've helped with several technical issues. Each time they go above and beyond.

Why Ultrasound Trainers
Franchises are expensive. We're the alternative.
Everything a franchise gives you without the ongoing royalties, the brand restrictions, or the corporate playbook written by people who've never run a studio.
No ongoing fees
Unlike a franchise, we don't take a percentage of your monthly revenue. You pay once for training and setup. What you earn after that is yours.
Your own brand, your own name
We help you build a studio with your name on it, not ours. You own the reputation you build in your market. You own the client relationships.
Real-world experience
Steve and the team own and operate ultrasound studios. Advice comes from lived experience, not a manual. If it doesn't work in practice, we don't teach it.
Zero experience required
You do not need a medical background. Our training takes complete beginners to performing professional elective scans in days, not years.
Training at your location
We come to you. Train your team on your equipment, in your space, on your schedule. No travel, no lost revenue days, no unfamiliar kit.
Support that doesn't end at launch
Questions a week in, six months in, a year in, we pick up. Our clients become repeat clients because the relationship doesn't end at the invoice.
Equipment
HD ultrasound machines matched to your budget.
Premium 3D/4D/HD systems from GE and Samsung Medison. New and refurbished. Training, warranty, and financing included.
Client stories
Verified Google reviews.

Big thank you to Steve at Ultrasound Trainers for a great week training. He made us feel comfortable with our new equipment and had tons of tips and tricks for scanning.

Common questions
Before you call, you might be wondering…
Do I need medical training to open a 3D/4D ultrasound studio?
No. Elective ultrasound is non-diagnostic and does not require a medical licence in the UK or Ireland. Our training covers everything a complete beginner needs, and is typically completed in three to four days for non-sonographers. Existing sonographers need about two days.
Is elective ultrasound legal in the UK and Ireland?
Yes. Non-diagnostic 3D/4D keepsake ultrasound is legal across the UK and Ireland, subject to standard business regulations. We cover the specific compliance points, consent forms, and safety protocols you need during training and setup.
Do you travel to the UK and Ireland to deliver training?
Yes. We deliver training on-site at your studio anywhere in England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, and the Republic of Ireland. Travel is included in the private training package. No need to fly your team anywhere.
What does a complete turn-key studio setup cost?
It varies depending on equipment choice, studio size, and which services you want bundled in. The best way to get a clear figure is to email us or drop us a WhatsApp message with your situation. Financing is available for clients with a range of credit profiles.
How is this different from a franchise?
A franchise takes ongoing royalties, restricts your branding, and dictates how you operate. Our model is the opposite. You pay once for training and setup. You operate under your own name. We stay available for questions, but you own every penny of revenue after that.
