Affidea opens centre in Letterkenny

CEO Tom Finn said this new state of the art facility is a landmark in a primary healthcare evolution for Donegal and the North West.

“The Letterkenny clinic will serve to ensure local patients have greater accessibility to medical scans, quickly, professionally and to the highest of standards. This new clinic will ensure patients can receive the timely attention they need in a primary care environment, rather than hospital based settling. Affidea Letterkenny will be equipped with state of the art technology including the High Specification Philips Ingenia Wide Bore MRI scanner, providing the highest quality scans and a much improved patient experience, particularly for patients who experience claustrophia or those who find it difficult to tolerate the noise of older scanners.”

Affidea Letterkenny offers an Ultra sound, Xray and MRI service.
