One year of imaging service
One year after opening, Woodford’s centre for imaging and diagnostics continues providing much needed imaging services in remote areas.
The Rural and Regional Diagnostic (RRD) Imaging provides ultrasounds and X-rays located on Woodford’s main road, meaning locals don’t need to commute 30 or more minutes to Caboolture or Morayfield.
The Rural and Regional Diagnostic (RRD) Imaging services the Woodford, Wamuran, Blackbutt, Kilcoy, Chermside and Landsborough areas, providing accessible imaging to remote and regional areas that don’t have access to these services.
They take all referrals and also provide mobile ultrasound services to aged care facilities, while working closely with GP clinics. Bulk billing service is also available.
Ms Tabeson, who is an experienced medical sonographer at the facility, said while the elderly benefit the most from the facility, it is intended to improve the accessibility for everyone in the community.
“Everyone is welcome to come in, ask questions, have a chat and make their life easier,” she said.
“The service is here to contribute to improving local’s own health by not having to wait two to three weeks for an available appointment in Caboolture, Morayfield etc, not to mention saving time and money on travel.”
The imaging facility is open Monday to Friday, from 9am to 5pm at 76 Archer Street, Woodford. More information can be found at https://www.rrdimaging.com.au/ or call 0481 337 673.
