"NHS Dental crisis goes from bad to worse" says Rochdale MP
Rochdale's MP Paul Rowen has reacted angrily after it emerged that the town's last NHS Dental Practice in Rochdale is to go private. Balderstone Dental Practice on Balderstone Road will no longer treat NHS Patients-only from April 1st 2006. Hundreds of residents across Rochdale Borough received the New Year Letter that they were dreading when the letter from the practice confirmed many residents fears. Paul will be raising this issue in Parliament this Tuesday in a debate on the new NHS Contracts.
