The Northgate Community Diagnostic Centre (CDC), on the Northgate Hospital site in Great Yarmouth, opened on 28 April 2025 and now offers a number of diagnostic services including CT scans, cardiac monitoring and sleep & lung function services.
Patients referred for CT scans and other diagnostic tests may now be invited to appointments at Northgate CDC, on Northgate Street, as an alternative location to scans provided at the main James Paget Hospital site in Gorleston.
These new facilities are designed to provide extra diagnostic capacity, to help our patients access tests more quickly, resulting in swifter diagnoses - and helps us provide services closer to many patients living in the Great Yarmouth area and in villages north of the town.
Northgate CDC is accessible via public transport with a bus stop outside and regular services to and from Caister, Hemsby, Ormesby, Martham and Great Yarmouth town centre.
Northgate CDC is run by staff from the James Paget, and is located in the former Cranbrook Building on the Northgate Hospital site, managed by Norfolk and Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust.
Cardiac and lung function services are now based at both the Oulton Suite at the James Paget Hospital and the Northgate CDC, and the sleep service is now based at Northgate only, having moved from the Norfolk Coastal Centre site at Beacon Park, Gorleston.
