Book a guided steroid injection

Ultrasound-guided steroid injections are specialist imaging appointments. Before a booking can be confirmed, you must have a referral from your health practitioner and a recent imaging report.

  • Healthcare professionals, including doctors, physiotherapists, osteopaths, hand therapists, podiatrists, and surgeons, can refer patients for ultrasound-guided steroid injections.

  • ACC funds one steroid injection per accepted claim. To access a 2nd ACC-funded steroid injection, ACC Prior Approval is required - see below.

  • Our charge for a privately funded guided steroid injection is $380.00.

  • Email an electronic or clear image of your printed steroid injection referral to support@soundexperience.co.nz.
