Stephen said, "I'm shocked ClinicentaCarrillion are trying to claim everything is ok at the Surgicentre when it clearly is not. The staff are doing a great job, but they are being failed by the way in which the contract is being managed. The Primary Care Trust have made it clear they do not want doctors to refer new patients to the Opthamology Service and the Care Quality Commission has serious concerns about the facility.
"I have met with the Chief Executive of the Care Quality Commission this week to discuss my concerns regarding the management of the ClinicentaCarrillion-owned Surgicentre.
"I explained they have lost the faith of the local medical professionals and the local community. They are not up to the job and the quality of care available to my constituents is just not good enough. I asked the Care Quality Commission to take action and seriously consider removing their licence to provide healthcare in the UK."
