They are reducing the number of Days that the new larchwood surgery is open, and there are rumours that it may close altogether. Coldean residents need a local Doctor because there are a great deal of elderly and families with small children who will have troubles traveling further afield.
Join the petition to keep it open.

To reduce such a vital part of Coldean's infrastructure just as we are expecting over 500 new residents with the new Housing Development on Coldean Lane is sheer madness. Also, those who do not drive will have to negotiate an intermittent bus service (every 20 mins if we're lucky) to get to Carden Surgery on the days when New Larchwood is closed!

We have had a surgery here in Coldean ever since I came here (1962). We now have the new Flats proposed with hundreds of more people. Surely we need a surgery now more than ever.

coldean needs our doctors surgery . We can be quite isolated with an irregular bus service . The surgery is the best we've ever had and I have lived here for68 years . Also we've had no notification to date .

we need a surgery that opens 5 days a week. A lot of people do not drive who use the surgery and when your feeling ill its the last thing you want to do is drive! Please reconsider this action. NL surgery is a very important part of our community and so are the lovely receptionists who take our calls.

This is a purely selfish decision made by the practice to make their life easier . The surgery has enough patients to support it . As yet I have not even received a notification about this from the surgery , I’m only aware because of social media . Not so Caring or compassionate! With the new development being built one has to wonder where these people will register

Many people like myself will have a variety of reasons why travelling for a GP appointment will be very difficult. Those who don't drive, the elderly, disabled & so on. I do drive but when i see the GP it is almost always for my MH disorder & during those times I don't drive & wouldn't be able to use public transport. This change will cause a lot of anxiety & problems for the residents of Coldean!

The NHS was founded to provide accessible health care. This change has been executed without proper consultation , and is therefore, in breach of statutory obligations
