Local GP Crisis

Patients in Bedfordshire are having to wait weeks to see a GP, as the Conservative NHS crisis deepens.

New figures show there are now more than 2,700 patients for every GP in our part of Bedfordshire - one of the worst in the country for GP numbers.

Emma Holland-Lindsay and the Liberal Democrats are calling for urgent action to fix the problem.

The Lib Dem GP plan would guarantee people can see a doctor quickly. And we’d introduce a new 24/7 hotline so people could book an appointment anytime, rather than have to wait in a long queue every morning hoping to get through.

Back the Lib Dem campaign for more local GPs

Bedfordshire has fewer GPs per person than almost anywhere in the country. The local Lib Dems are fighting for more. I back the Lib Dem campaign for more local GPs here:
