Important Notice: Temporary Closure of X-Ray Services at St Andrews Health Centre

I am pleased to say that refurbishment works to the X-ray room at St. Andrew's health centre in Billericay have now been completed. The site will reopen on Tuesdays and Thursdays only from the week commencing the 21 July. Routine patients are once again able to book appointments at the site online and walk in chest x-ray referrals will be accepted whenever activity allows. 

At this time, the opening of the X-ray department at Brentwood Community hospital (BCH) will be reduced to Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays only. Again the online booking portal has been updated to reflect this and walk in chest x-ray referrals will be accepted on these days. 

These changes are necessary as the wider Radiology department prepares for the opening of the Thurrock CDC in September with the significant workload and staffing changes necessary for this. 

Once clinical work is underway at Thurrock the situation at St. Andrew's and BCH will be reviewed.
