James Wild MP has welcomed a decision to save a local King's Lynn medical practice from closure.
Earlier today, health chiefs announced that the Fairstead Surgery is set to remain open while alternative options for care provision are considered.
The move follows a lengthy campaign by patients' representatives in response to a consultation that proposed closing Fairstead surgery.
James said: “ This is welcome news for patients who depend on Fairstead surgery and a tribute to the strong campaign to save the surgery. Having set out my opposition, and that of residents, to the Chief executive of West Norfolk CCG I am pleased that they and Vida Healthcare have listened and dropped the closure plan. Now there must be an open dialogue on the way forward.”
