Location overview

The Wood Green community diagnostic centre (CDC) opened in August 2022 and offers North Central London residents blood tests, x-rays, ultrasounds and an ophthalmology (eye) clinic.

Most of the services are provided by Whittington Health NHS Trust, and Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust run the ophthalmology clinic.

Plans are underway to install MRI and CT scanners in the lower ground floor of the centre, these services are due to open in Autumn 2023.

Patients need to have been referred to the CDC by their GP for blood tests, ultrasound and x-rays. 

Whilst the diagnostic tests are carried out by CDC staff, patients remain under the care of their GP or the hospital trust from where they were referred.

For more information, and an interactive tour of the Wood Green CDC, please visit the Whittington’s website.
