Hilary Benn, MP for Leeds South, has officially opened the NHS Community Diagnostic Centre (CDC) – Beeston in Leeds, bringing a range of health services closer to people in the community. The CDC, operated by Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, offers ultrasound, a range of cardio-respiratory services including ambulatory blood pressure tests, ECG, and sleep studies, and blood tests (phlebotomy). GPs and hospital care teams will refer people for a required diagnostic test, at which point they will be able to select the most convenient location for them – which may be the CDC. The CDC provides an additional choice for patients and doesn’t replace any other options such as at a GP practice or major hospital.
