About Us

We are a private specialised musculoskeletal ultrasound imaging clinic, treatment, and education provider. Our clinics are in Mt Albert and Northcote, Auckland.

We specialise in detecting structural and functional musculoskeletal injuries. We believe timely and correct diagnosis leads to better outcomes for patients. We train health practitioners in a clinical environment, providing hands-on practice and immediate feedback.

We want access to quality MSK ultrasound for all. We have committed to keeping our services affordable. See our pricing

About Our Service

A referral form is required for all examinations and is signed by your clinician. On your arrival, our reception staff will check your details with you.

Our musculoskeletal ultrasound imaging examiner performs your examination, and our (doctor) radiologist generates a report. The report is emailed to the referrer.

Please let us know if you need a preliminary report at the end of your scan. Our doctor (radiologist) also performs guided steroid injections at our clinic.

  • Alastair Treacher

    My background is in musculoskeletal management and education, and ultrasound has become a natural progression of that work. I believe it provides a window to beneath the surface, making it easier to understand what’s really happening inside the body.

    I completed my Certificate in Allied Health Performed Ultrasound (CAHPU) in 2023. I now combine ultrasound with my background in patient care to bring clarity to musculoskeletal conditions.

    Outside of work, I’m kept busy with my three kids and dog. I aim to make ultrasound clear, accessible, and informative.
