Keep our surgery open in Netherton! Local Lib Dems are deeply concerned by the proposed closure of Netherton Surgery. Finbarr Cronin is worried for the health and well-being of the elderly and young children who rely on being able to access a doctor in the village.

I/We the undersigned call on NHS Wakefield Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) to:

1. Do more to support Orchard Croft Practice to employ permanent and/or locum staff in order to maintain weekly GP and Practice Nurse clinics in the village.

2. Ensure that any proposed closure will not be considered by Wakefield CCG without a replacement guarantee of more home visits if a Netherton patient is unable to travel to see a clinician in Horbury.  

3. A transport solution is found to ensure those who are unable to and/or who will struggle, can have access to Orchard Croft Medical Centre.
