The stories coming through regarding delayed care highlight a system that is currently failing those in need. I am currently compiling these experiences to present a formal case for why a local presence at the hospital is a necessity rather than a luxury. Silence from the health board remains for now but your persistence keeps this topic visible.

The steady growth of this petition reflects a shared recognition that our current medical coverage is insufficient for the needs of our community. Seeing this momentum confirms that many others feel the same urgency regarding the risks posed by our current system. This collective attention provides a strong foundation as we prepare to advocate for these necessary improvements to our local healthcare access.

Ridiculous to think one or two doctors can cover all of Somerset. We need local care. Frome is growing so fast and we are being ignored.
About time. Yeovil is miles away when you are sick in the middle of the night. Do the right thing.
Waiting 3 hours for a call back is dangerous. What if it was an emergency? This system is broken.
My mum waited forever last week. It was so worrying. We need a proper service here in Frome.
Common sense says we need this. Stop putting patients at risk just to save a few pennies.
