NIPT/NT and non-high risk pregnancies

Anonymous
I am newly pregnant and 30, scheduled to have my first ultrasound in a few weeks at my longtime OB-GYN practice. On their website, it says that they offer NIPT but not NT at the office. From what I've read, I would ideally like to get both. Is an NT scan something I can probably easily get done at another office, or do I need to change practices altogether? I'm surprised that they don't offer it as this is one of the big groups that delivers at Inova (Nova group for women).

My OB sent me to the MFM at Inova Fairfax hospital for the NT scan. Ask if yours offer this as well?

We had to go to an MFM for the NT scan. The regular OB-gyn’s office did not have the machine or the tech.

I’ve always been offered both but I’ve noticed from talking around that every practice is a little different.
