Health Minister Eddie Teare will seek approval in Tynwald tomorrow (Tues) for the construction of a new GP surgery to replace the existing one on Loch Promenade in Douglas.
It will be located on the first floor of the Chester Street car park above Shoprite, and planning permission has already been obtained. If the scheme is approved by Tynwald the new premises could be open in around 12 months.
Mr Teare (pictured) says the practice provides an essential service to a wide range of patients, and building the new one WILL pose problems:
