In Summer 2026, we are opening a new purpose-built facility for our Manchester and Trafford CDC at Withington Community Hospital. 

The state-of-the-art facility will provide convenient access to essential diagnostic services, with patients able to receive multiple tests in a single visit, reducing waiting times and journeys to hospital and enabling faster treatment. 

Once complete, the CDC will be open 12 hours a day, seven days a week, reducing the need for people to travel to one of our major hospitals for diagnostic tests – ensuring that they are cared for in the most appropriate place. The CDC will deliver the following tests:

  • Cardiology
  • Respiratory
  • Sleep Studies
  • Non-Obstetric Ultrasound 

The purpose-built CDC at Withington Community Hospital follows the opening of the North Manchester in Harpurhey in August 2025.
