Hi,
You can always insist on your doctor to do the ultrasound as your current pregnancy is precious. Please speak to your doctor openly and let her know that you wish to get one done.
She should be able to help you.
Going to the ER is also a good option. But, the ultrasound would not be done if there are no symptoms or when it is not necessary.
Hope this helps. All the best.
