How Much Does a Private MRI Scan Cost in Sutton Coldfield?
A private MRI scan arranged through The Vesey costs £499 for one body area, whichever area it is. The price includes the scan and a written radiologist's report. You start with a free imaging consultation, and you do not need a GP referral.
| Service | Guide price | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| MRI scan, one body area | £499 | Brain, spine, knee, shoulder, hip, wrist, ankle, pelvis or abdomen. Includes the radiologist's report. |
| GP consultation (30 minutes) | £90 | Optional: book this if you want your symptoms assessed or a diagnosis, not just a scan. |
What the price includes
Every single-area MRI is £499, so a knee costs the same as a lumbar spine or a brain scan. The figure covers the scan itself and a written report from a radiologist. Before the scan you have a free imaging consultation with our team: we confirm which scan you need and complete the referral form, so you do not have to see your own GP first. If you need more than one area scanned, we confirm the price for that at the same consultation, before you commit to anything.
Where the scan happens
The scan itself takes place at our partner imaging clinic in Solihull, not at The Vesey. Your imaging consultation, the referral paperwork and the review of your results are handled at The Vesey in Sutton Coldfield, B75 7BU. We confirm the scan address and directions when we book it.
The imaging consultation is not a medical appointment
The free imaging consultation arranges the right scan. It does not include a diagnosis, treatment or advice on managing a condition. If you want a doctor to assess your symptoms first, book a GP appointment (£90 for 30 minutes) or a specialist consultation (from £260). Your clinician can then request the scan if it is needed.
Using health insurance
Many insurers cover MRI, but most need you to get pre-authorisation before the scan. We can provide the documentation your insurer asks for. If you are paying for yourself, the price above is the price you pay for one area.
