Started by Monkston Focus 11 years, 5 months ago
We the undersigned call on NHS England to expand the GP practice at MK Village to cover all the people on Monkston and Monkston Park, as well as Oakgrove and Middleton, and to expand the practice at Walnut Tree to cover Walton Grange and the whole of Kents Hill, and to plan adequate provision for the new developments to come, already known about.


We further call on NHS England to place the new "super-surgery" at either MK Village or Walnut Tree, where it will be surrounded by the community it is to serve, with a branch surgery at Brooklands, since Brooklands is inaccessible to the majority of the patients that the super-surgery will serve.

November 3, 2015

The volume of support has secured us a formal meeting with representatives from the local integrated care board. I am currently drafting a briefing document that outlines our infrastructure requirements for the MK Village and Walnut Tree expansion plans.

I live 5 mins walk from Walnut Tree, my actual Doctors is 50 mins walk at Broughton gate. I am not rich enough for a taxi. Old age a real worry.

I am disabled and have several long term health problems, there are no prebookable appointments with my GP so when by mircle I get an appointment with a random GP they can't help and tell me to see my own GP. We need more GP's locally , there is a lot houses being built locally yet no GP surgeries are planned, It's no wonder A&E is packed

Good point about Broughton's long hours. However, technically that's the drop-in centre there, not specifically linked to that surgery. The Super-surgery would aim to be open longer hours and part time on Sat (and Walnut Tree will also extend it's hours soon) but we don't know about Sunday or whether the drop-in centre would also locate to the super-surgery. It would make sense if it did, since that's where there would be most doctors sharing the workload. But not at Brooklands!

We have registered at Broughton Gate after battling with trying to remain at Milton Keynes Village as only moved 1 mile from previous house and am now shocked to see this will be closed!
