More than 600 patients have responded to a consultation on the potential closure of a Sheffield health centre.
Sothall and Beighton Medical Practice revealed this summer that an anticipated loss of almost a quarter of its funding in the next four years means it can no longer afford to maintain the same level of service at its two current surgeries - resulting in it considering the closure of Beighton Health Centre on Queens Road.
The idea is being considered so service levels could be maintained at Sothall Medical Centre on Eckington Road, along with longer opening hours.
Patients have been told the other option would be to keep both sites open but with significantly reduced services at each.
