Our view of the service
This service has been registered to provide diagnostic and screening services since June 2015. They provide MRI scans for sick and injured NHS patients referred primarily from Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust.
We carried out a comprehensive unannounced assessment of this service on 13 May 2026. Two inspectors and a specialist advisor with expertise in MRI carried out the inspection. The reason for the inspection was an aged rating. The service was last inspected in April 2019 and was rated good.
People's experience of this service
As it was not always appropriate to ask patients to share their experience of the service, we instead observed how they were treated by staff and reviewed feedback the service had received. Patients appeared to be satisfied with the care they received, and staff treated them with kindness, dignity and respect.
