DOCTORS at a Yorkshire GPs’ practice have written to 10,000 patients warning they can no longer guarantee safe treatment — or any treatment at all — because it is at “breaking point.”

The doctors said GP surgeries across the country are in the same situation.

The warning has caused uproar among patients and health-service campaigners in Calderdale in West Yorkshire, which also faces losing its local hospital’s accident and emergency unit.

Halifax Labour MP Linda Riordan pledged to raise the issue in Parliament.
