HGTC Offering FREE Non-Diagnostic OB Ultrasound
Appointments for the Spring 2022 semester are available now.
Horry-Georgetown Technical College (HGTC) is pleased to announce that sonography students are currently training to perform obstetrics and gynecology (OB) ultrasound examinations in the clinical setting. Enrolled HGTC Ultrasound students are offering to perform non-diagnostic ultrasounds to help perfect their scanning skills, while providing some of the first images of the new family member.
The College is seeking volunteers to participate in one-hour sessions on select dates and times. Appointments for Spring 2022 are now available. During the one-hour session, expectant patients and their loved ones will have the opportunity to view the baby at a new stage of development while HGTC students learn important skills with a qualified Sonography Instructor. Students and faculty always make sure to send some fun ultrasound pictures home with mom.
The FREE non-diagnostic ultrasounds will be offered on the HGTC Grand Strand Campus at 3501 Pampas Drive in Myrtle Beach. Those interested in volunteering for this exciting, FREE opportunity may schedule an appointment online at www.signup.com/go/kSpVAGs or by calling 843-477-2181. Moms must be more than 20 weeks and will need to have a record of their prenatal ultrasound with a primary physician.
COVID-19 Safety Measures will be followed by wearing masks and social distancing when possible.
