The aim of the GCRM Edinburgh satellite service is to make treatment more convenient for you. The Edinburgh satellite is staffed by nurses from the Glasgow clinic plus sonographers from their colleagues at Ultrasound Direct, so you receive the same high levels of care that you would in the main clinic. Appointments are conducted as they would be in Glasgow and all scan and blood test results are put on the database so the decisions made about your treatment, and your chances of success, are the same whether you choose to have your appointments in Glasgow or Edinburgh.
