The Redhill Community Diagnostic Centre (CDC) opened today in The Belfry Shopping Centre.

CDCs are healthcare facilities that offer tests, scans and checks in community settings.  They aim to reduce pressure on hospitals and give patients quicker and more convenient access to tests.  Among the services offered are Echocardiograms, CT scans and X-rays.  Appointments at the Centre are made through a referral from a GP or healthcare professional.

Other Community Diagnostic Centres are already in place at Crawley Hospital and the Queen Victoria Hospital in East Grinstead.
