Save The Wellspring GP Surgery, St Anns, Nottingham from closure

Rejected 13 signatures

What the petition asks

This petition is to save The Wellspring GP Surgery, St Anns, Nottingham from closure due to significant increases in accommodation costs which are financially destabilising this inner city practice. we are the only GP surgery left in St Anns, we currently provide healthcare to 10,000 patients.
There have been numerous service charge issues over the years. Our service charges have increased tenfold since 2012 with no clear explanation nor reasonable justification of this and this is what we are disputing. If new charges are to stand it will make the practice financially unviable and could potentially bankrupt the practice The current financial position/risk has made it impossible for us to recruit a replacement partner and, as a consequence, we have had to stop accepting new patients.
