A consultation has begun on plans to cut the number of NHS outpatient clinics in east Kent from 15 to six.
East Kent Hospitals University NHS Foundation Trust claimed the clinics would provide better, specialist treatment.
The trust said it planned to spend ?5m on facilities at the six centres and make more use of technology.
But critics, including Kent MP Gordon Henderson, said patients would have further to travel.
