Well put
East Kent has the main "specialist" hospitals (William Harvey/QEQM) and to a lesser degree Canterbury. In many cases these hospitals give a wider facility as in the past one was often referred to London hospitals where now many such operations are dealt with locally in Ashford/Margate.
It is the after care that is required wherby patients can get this locally after discharge rather than travelling to WH and QEQM also "minor" ops.
I have always favoured a Central Dover location as it has good public transport links from accross the district as well as close to the railway station and would help regenerate the town but one has to, reluctantly, accept the facts.
Due to the continuing "Whifield" scenario the Town location was lost although with forethought the problems could,I feel, have been resolved and would have stopped alternative sites being proposed.
What is needed is for the work to start and get the facility to Dover that it deserves and stop winging about Whifield otherwise yet again the oportunity is lost.
