Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 81 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers frequently praise the welcoming staff and calming environment, which successfully helps ease anxiety for anyone dealing with claustrophobia. People also appreciate the exceptional professional care, clean facilities, and clear explanations provided throughout the entire scanning process. Some reviewers were not happy with initial physical positioning, mentioning that it caused unexpected pain or discomfort during the procedure. A few other people also felt that certain practical aspects, such as communication or follow-up details, could be handled much better. However, these specific issues represent minor challenges within an otherwise overwhelmingly positive environment for most visitors.

Written by the company

Medserena is a specialist provider of open and upright MRI scans. Our Open MRI scanners are beneficial to all patients who suffer with claustrophobia and have a fear of conventional, tunnel MRI systems. We accept referrals from both healthcare professionals and self-referrals. Payment by private health insurance, self-pay and NHS authorised funding are all accepted. We specialise in providing private MRI scans of the brain, spine, joints and pelvic region. Our Upright MRI system is unique in that it can image the whole spine, including the craniocervical junction (CCJ) in an upright position. In addition, our variPOSE™ technique (varying the pose through flexion, extension and rotation for the scan) allows us to thoroughly assess the effects of gravity and posture on joints and soft tissue. Established in 2011, Medserena currently has 2 UK MRI centres in London and Manchester.

Good place to go

Everyone was really lovely & I had an appointment really quickly. Just waiting for results. Shame that one has to go privately to get anything done!

Wonderful - I would have never been able to have an MRI otherwise

Wonderful service! I am very claustrophobic and never would have been able to have an MRI otherwise.

The team were so kind and caring. The experience was very good; the upright machine is open and you are able to watch a tv show like Friends or relaxing nature scenes. The staff talk you through the whole time and let you know when you can move and when you need to stay still (most MRIs are a series of smaller tests). Highly recommended.

The comparative detail of the Upright MRI machines is second to none. Don't put off years of unsuccessful NHS appointments.
I wish we had used these services years ago!

Excellent experience

Easy to book my MRI appointment, with questions answered promptly. Helpful/friendly staff during the scan. Radiologists report arrived a few days later. Excellent service all round. Also, I’m highly claustrophobic and I had no problems with the open MRI.

Upright MRI scan is a great alternative to the tunnel MRI and whilst the position was uncomfortable it was not claustrophobic and over in 17 mins.

You do not feel claustrophobic, so much better than the conventional MRI scanner machine.

Absolutely lovely staff, very caring and knowledgeable.
The facilities are immaculately clean and sterile.
I would definitely recommend this MRI scanner machine, you do not feel claustrophobic at all.
You can watch the television while in the scanner and it’s not as noisy as the conventional MRI.
Would highly recommend.
