STRUCTURE: More than 500 people have signed a petition against the closure of a GP practice run by the primary care trust.
The petition requested signatures from individuals concerned by the proposed closure of Manzoori Surgery in Hextable on 31 March 2011 and contained 500 plus signatures. The petition was presented to the PCT on Friday 14 January.
The Manzoori Clinic is one of two PCT managed GP practices. According to the PCT, the practice is housed in premises that currently do not meet minimum standards.
In addition the current patient list size is not considered sustainable and the quality of care currently provided to patients at this practice needs to be improved.
