About the doctor
Natalia Chirkova is an ultrasound doctor. She works with the musculoskeletal system (joints, muscles, tendons), soft tissues, the thyroid and abdominal organs. Colleagues value her for her care, and patients for her kind attitude. She never rushes and explains in detail what she sees on screen.

Natalia works with a General Electric Vivid T8 machine with a high-frequency L8–18i probe. It gives a detailed image even in hard-to-reach areas.

Why ultrasound is calm and safe
- No radiation. Ultrasound uses sound waves, not X-rays, so it can be repeated as often as needed.
- Painless. The doctor glides a probe over your skin with warm gel. It feels like a light massage.
- Quick. The visit usually takes 15–20 minutes, and the doctor discusses the result with you right away.
- Once a year is a good habit. Doctors recommend an ultrasound once a year for everyone, even without complaints. Many changes stay silent for a long time but show up on screen well before any symptoms. Think of it as a regular check-up, just for you.
When to book
Consider booking an ultrasound if:
- you have joint pain, swelling or limited movement, including after an injury;
- you have muscle or tendon pain during exertion;
- you have noticed a lump under the skin or enlarged lymph nodes;
