Harbourside Health Group has opened its fourth community diagnostic centre, in Plymouth.
The centre brings imaging and outpatient clinics under one roof and adds approximately 15,000 appointments a year to the group's capacity.
The opening follows investment in clinical governance and scheduling systems across the existing network, which has reduced average waiting times by 18 days.
A fifth site is in planning for 2027.
