THE MP has previously met with the Director of NHS England for Sussex and her team to make the case for retaining a GP surgery at Eaton Place. He is now calling for a decision to be made as a matter of urgency.

He said: “I have consistently supported the retention of a GP surgery at Eaton Place and made this very clear to NHS England during my meeting. I am calling on NHS England to make a decision as soon as possible, to give clarity and certainty for patients.

“I will continue to lobby on behalf of constituents until a decision is made.”

The surgery, due to close at the end of February, has more than 5,600 patients on its books, who will have to find a new doctor.
