The Liberal Democrat candidate believes the construction of the centre would be vital
A campaign has been launched to construct a new Milngavie health and care centre by Liberal Democrat candidate Susan Murray.
The new fight for the clinic comes after local GP practices sent a letter to Greater Glasgow Care to protest the National Care Service proposal and promote localised community based care.Susan Murray told Glasgow Live: "We're getting a steady flow of people who are not content with the service or access to GPs in Bearsden and Milngavie.
"Which means the number of long-term conditions that need be treated is larger. It would make a huge impact because some of our old and frail people have to travel to Kirkintilloch at the moment."It would make a big difference to GPs in general to have a premises that is fit for purpose, that is just modern and provides the facilities required."
"Two key aspects of that vision are that we want to enable people to stay in their communities accessing the care they need, and to access high quality primary and community care services close to home.
