A Lochmaben man is backing a call for urgent talks to discuss improving cancer services in the region.
Stuart Roxburgh, 82, is forced to travel to Edinburgh Royal Infirmary for check-ups every six months because he can’t access services closer to home.
Mr Roxburgh is supporting MSP Finlay Carson’s request for a meeting with Scottish Health Secretary Humza Yousaf to discuss the difficulties facing patients in Dumfries and Galloway.
