Medically reviewed by Dr Nabila Laskar, Consultant Cardiologist (GMC 7040901). Private echocardiogram costs in London typically range from £250 to £600 depending on whether it's a standalone scan or combined with a consultation and ECG. Here's a transparent breakdown of what's included at each price point.
Echocardiogram only: from £250–£350. ECG + Echocardiogram package: from £395. Consultation + ECG + Echocardiogram: from £495–£600. Annual cardiac screening packages: from £795–£895/year.
Price varies based on whether a consultant cardiologist performs the scan directly (as opposed to a technician with remote reporting), whether a written report and consultation are included, and same-day versus standard turnaround for results.
A scan performed and interpreted directly by a Consultant Cardiologist — rather than a technician scan reviewed remotely — provides real-time clinical correlation between what's seen on the scan and your symptoms or history, often catching nuances a standardised reporting process might miss.
At The Cardiology Doctors, our Baseline Cardiac Screen (ECG + Echocardiogram + written report) starts at £395, performed personally by Dr Nabila Laskar, Consultant Cardiologist, with results available the same day where possible.
For many people, particularly those with symptoms, risk factors, or starting intense exercise programmes, a private echocardiogram offers fast access and consultant-level interpretation without NHS waiting times.
