I'm rather far along in my pregnancy and I was curious to see a 3D/4D version of my baby. After doing a search of the nearest 3D/4D ultrasound services I found this place online along with a few others. I chose this one after speaking with the secretary who happened to be courteous and informative. The office was relatively easy to find and there is a parking lot (free) next to the plaza. The lot was full when I arrived but, luckily someone was leaving as I entered the lot a second time. I was maybe only 2 minutes late to the office and I was their only client when I walked in. I saw the secretary first (she was nice) and then I saw the ultrasound tech. I should have walked back out when I saw the tech's face. She seemed irritated. I stayed anyway, paid for the package that I wanted (which includes gender determination; luckily I already knew that my baby is a girl from a previous regular 2D ultrasound), and she began the procedure. My baby was asleep with her hand and feet covering her face so the tech asked me to change my position which I did. The baby still wouldn't budge and the tech was determined to get a shot of the face. I was trying to help her out but, the tech just became increasingly irritated. I'm not sure if it was due to a language barrier (I speak fluent English and she had an audible accent) or if she just started off having a bad day. After awhile, the baby did move and I was in a position where the tech was able to get a shot of her face. The tech was not able to tell me whether the baby was a girl or boy until I mentioned that the baby is a girl. She ran out of time and I didn't get to see the 3D proof that the baby is a girl. The whole experience was disappointing (because I felt like she was mean) and if I had it to do over again, I would most likely go somewhere else. At least I have some good pictures of my baby.
Pros: Same day appointments
Cons: Rude ultrasound tech / sonographer
