A planning application has been approved by Plymouth City Council for a new health development at Colin Campbell Court.

The second Community Diagnostic Centre will provide a range of integrated acute, primary, and community diagnostic services. It will be based at Colin Campbell Court, alongside the recently developed Community Diagnostic Centre, which opened to patients last month.

Plymouth’s new Community Diagnostic Centre has opened its doors today, welcoming the first patients to the state-of-the-art facility.

The Plymouth Community Diagnostic Centre (PCDC) has been officially opened by Luke Pollard MP and University Hospitals NHS Trust colleagues, marking a major milestone in improving access to diagnostic services for local people.

A new extension to the Plymouth Oncology Centre (POC) at Derriford Hospital has been officially opened by the Sparks family and Plymouth Argyle Football Club’s Kevin Nancekivell, in memory of the late BBC Radio Devon presenter and Argyle commentator, Gordon Sparks.

Patients across Plymouth and the surrounding areas are set to benefit from faster, safer and more advanced heart care, following the completion of a major refurbishment of the cardiac catheterisation laboratories (cath labs).

The construction stage of the new Plymouth Community Diagnostic Centre (PCDC) is now complete, with the keys formally handed over to University Hospitals Plymouth NHS Trust (UHP).
