WYCOMBE'S MP is pushing for plans which could see doctors surgeries opening for longer hours to help workers.
Steve Baker, Conservative, has called for patients to be put in charge of the NHS and backed the idea of creating patient-led commissioning groups.
These bodies would give patients the chance to set up work-friendly and night-time opening hours and potentially even old-fashioned home visits from doctors.
His comments come as David Cameron announced a ?50m project to make evening or weekends appointments more available.
