A cancer patient was shocked to discover his GP had ditched him after 38 years – because he moved 300 yards down the road. Dan Lane, 38, says he was ‘kicked into the gutter’ when he was taken off his GP’s list of patients without warning. The technical advisor, who suffers from a rare genetic condition, was told by his practice that his new address was no longer within their boundaries. He moved from his old home to a new one just 300 yards in Lower Wick, Worcester, four months ago. Both addresses are less than two miles from Spring Gardens Group Medical Practice where Dan has been a patient his whole life. Dan says being kicked off the GP list has caused him ‘anxiety and stress’ and he feels especially vulnerable due to his condition.
