NIPT at mothercare??

I've just found that you can get an ultrasound scan at mothercare .. I'm obviously late to the party on this and a bit shocked they are offering NIPT , I'm searching for nearby NIPT clinics and my local mothercare came up on google.
So is there a clinic inside? Do they take my bloods for the NIPT there?
They said sexing is there opinion maybe I'm reading it wrong but I thought it was done from the blood. The wording didn't sound as professional as another clinic I looked at
Any one got experience?

I had NIPT in both pregnancies. It's very professional, you have a scan then they take your bloods. You'll get the results by phone or email 7-10days later. Finding out the sex is optional but if you opt out then they won't check for sex chromosome disorders.

Sorry meant to say I had it at mothercare!

Ah thank you @welshweasel
I've just gone ahead and booked it's the first week in November I'll be 11 weeks then. It's very local to me so will be very easy to get to

I had NIPT at Mothercare earlier this year (the company itself was Babybond I think, but located in a Mothercare store) and as above found it was professional and the result took about a week.
