| 203 | PAT EARL | The Family Doctor concept is as neccessary today as it has ever been. Drs surgeries represent excellent value for money and there is no need to change our access to them |

| 206 | Philip Greig | I get a very good service from my GP at the Westrop Surgery in Hughworth, only 4 miles away. Keep it and everything else LOCAL, PLEASE. |
| 207 | Simon Gretton | My wife,Sandra,and I are both wholeheartedly in support of this campaign. |
| 208 | Mary Sainsbury | If the local surgery, Westrop Surgery in Highworth, were to be closed, the nearest one will be built in Swindon, a distance of some 6 miles. I live in a small village with NO bus service and being elderly, visiting a polyclinic would be virtually impossible. Equally, those with small children would find it extremely difficult.
Does the Government care about people living in rural communities or is only concerned about those living in a town? |
| 209 | H Lansberry | I wish to be able to see MY GP locally, and be able to see him/her all the time, NOT a centralised overseas doctor at these enormous clinics. I wish my son to be able to be a GP and not have to abandon the idea of working locally with familes. |
| 210 | Mick Cunningham | Why do this government interfere with things that work well and dont tackle things that are ruining this Country. I apologise as I am one of those to blame as I voted for them!! |

| 214 | amy purdon | I really feel strongly about this. People without cars (I don't see public transport being made any more efficient or frequent in the countrsyide), the elderly and disabled will find it very inconvenient to have to travel further - which most will & I think it's another way (along with post office closures) in which community life will be fragmented. Never thought I'd have to petition a labour government about such things. |
| 215 | Lesley Wright | I have severe health problems and prefer to see my own GP because he knows my history and my ability to understand my disease and treatment. I would not feel comfortable seeing anyone else and that does not happen at my present surgery |

| 218 | Richard Nelson | As a healthcare professional and hospital doctor I realise that for people in need, an essential part of their caring process depends upon the relationships they enter into. These may be with a hospital consultant, a ward nurse, even a student, but the one great constant through most peoples' lives is their relationship with a GP. In addition to bullet points and protocols, we need carers who know when not to medicate, when to watch and when to reassure. Such care is unlikely to be available at a walk in centre staffed by 50 professionals. This plan will threaten the viability of some GP surgeries as well as break up the valuable partnership that exists between primary and secondary care. Choice is not needed when one of the alternatives, in this case the polyclinic, is manifestly inferior. |

| 221 | John Hutty | The present system works well, why change it ? |
| 222 | Matthew Lindsay | My local medical centre is an invaluable asset to the local community which would suffer greatly if it were lost. |
| 223 | David and Anne Wood | Please do not close our Surgery here in Highworth, Wiltshire. It will cause unnecessary expense to travel afield for consultation and renewing Prescriptions. PLEASE KEEP our Surgery open we need it to be local for easy access for our 12.000 odd residents. |
| 224 | Mr S Woodhead | I agree wit local GP's that this is just another step to privatise the NHS and therefore I full support you in your protest. |

| 232 | stephen willis | Stop interfereing in our lives. we want a governmemt that does less, spends less, interferes less, and returns its enormous tax take to us, to spend more efficiently, on things we want, not what the governmemt thinks we want |

| 238 | Janice Kydd | Having listened to the arguments and where the nearest clinic would be for my parents and myself, 20 miles to see a doctor is unacceptable. |

| 244 | Angela Barnes | The provisions for GP healthcare in my area are very good. No tinkering with what is already working well thank you very much. |

| 246 | Helen McCall | As a Labour voter, I am appalled at the government's relentless attack upon communities. Every decision seems to play right into the hands of the Tories. |
