A man who now faces a 10-mile round trip to see a nurse says he is “seething” at the decision by health chiefs to remove the treatment from a Bridge of Weir doctors surgery.
Chris Gilzean, who receives regular injections at Strathgryffe Medical Practice, said he only learned of the planned closure of the treatment room when he was notified his next appointment would be 4.9 miles away in Linwood.
Mr Gilzean, who also represents Bridge of Weir Tenants and Residents Association, together with local councillor James MacLaren, has demanded an “immediate rethink” of the decision.
