Richard Fuller MP questions the Health Secretary about local GP availability

Access to GPs and Primary Care services is an issue that is regularly raised across the constituency. During Department for Health questions today Richard asked the Secretary of State to ensure that areas like Biggleswade, Sandy, Arlesey and Stotfold, that have seen large population increases due to new housing, also have increased access to GPs.

This is an issue which Richard is following up with a meeting with the Minister to discuss what steps can be taken locally to increase GP numbers.
