The private diagnostics
market is broken
Patients are waiting months for basic diagnostic scans on the NHS, often delaying critical diagnosis.
Yet the market is fragmented — no central platform, no transparent pricing, no easy comparison.
Millions of patients don't know where to go, what it costs, or how to book a private scan.
