Cancer Diagnostic Centre

Cancer is the biggest killer in Gwynedd, attributed to 28% of deaths in Gwynedd in 2018. In some areas, such as Dolgellau, it's hgher, 41%.

Early diagnosis is crucial to ensure a positive outcome.

The Welsh Government have piloted Rapid Diagnostic Centres in two Health Boards in south Wales, and they have proven to be successful, with meant time until diagnosis reduced from 84 days to 6 days.

We call on the Welsh Government to invest in opening a rapid diagnostic centre in Gwynedd to ensure parity of service.

North Wales patients need diagnostic services in North Wales for faster and better prognosis, outsourcing to England NHS has gone on far too long and when our westminster MPs are excluded from Voting on NHS . NHS Wales need to stop the postcode lottery and establish a North Wales rapid diagnostic centre.

I have spent the last 18 months going through cancer diagnosing tests and I have spent most of that time anxious about results and treatment due to long waiting times. I am just one person out of so many and so many more to follow.

A diagnostic centre would truly make a difference
