Community Diagnostic and Treatment Centre

Welcome to Wye Valley NHS Trust Community Diagnostic Centre, opened in September 2025, which is located on the northern side of Hereford city. This purpose-built centre offers modern facilities and state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment.

It brings together the latest MRI, CT, X-ray, and Ultrasound technology, enabling us to play a vital role in identifying and treating illnesses more quickly and closer to home. By providing faster access to diagnostics via GP referrals, the centre helps reduce pressure on our acute hospital services and supports speedier diagnoses for patients. 

In addition to advanced imaging services, the centre provides cardiac and respiratory physiological testing, as well as a dedicated phlebotomy clinic for blood tests.
