Papamoa and Te Puke communities are witnessing a significant improvement in their access to medical imaging services with Bay Radiology opening its new state-of-the-art clinic in Tara Rd.

This purpose-built facility brings the latest medical imaging technology within reach of the community, transforming healthcare accessibility for residents along the coastal strip.

Bay Radiology regional manager Nicola Daisley says the new clinic marks a significant milestone in healthcare provision, offering a comprehensive range of advanced equipment.

The comprehensive range of services available includes MRI, CT, general, obstetric, and musculoskeletal ultrasound, mammography, x-ray imaging, and specialised interventional services such as musculoskeletal injections.

'These offerings will prove particularly beneficial in injury recovery management plans, delivering holistic care for patients in need,” says Nicola.

Committed to breaking down barriers to healthcare, Bay Radiology aims to minimise the need for patients in Papamoa and Te Puke to travel for essential imaging services.

'With 18 consultant radiologists based locally to support BOP communities, patients can rest assured that highly specialised expertise is readily available right on their doorstep,” says Nicola.

'This state-of-the-art facility will ensure that patients receive timely and accurate diagnoses, leading to more effective treatment plans.”

Bay Radiology has been providing medical imaging services to the Bay of Plenty for more than 30 years – and is part of the RHCNZ Medical Imaging Group, which is a leading provider of radiology services, offering state-of-the-art diagnostic imaging technology and expert radiologists. 'With a commitment to patient-centred care, Bay Radiology strives to enhance accessibility and improve healthcare outcomes for communities of New Zealand.”
