When Orsett was 'Downgraded 'to a set of clinics (It is no longer classed as a hospital, it was the understanding that it would not be shut until all 4 local community 'Mini-clinics' was built and up and running, with each clinic having its own specialised service, as well as routine tests (Blood-Water) etc.

I was always led to believe that the land that Orsett hospital occupies was a gift to the local people from an Orsett dignitary, therefore the land still belongs to local people but the health trusts appear to believe that it is theirs to make a profit from, this would appear to be fraudulent activity and should be looked into by local councillors/ journalists

So you knock down Orsett Hospital where is everyone going to fit in for appointments at these hubs that aren’t built . Plus all the new residents that will live in the house and flats which will be built where the hospital is now . Absolutely disgusting behaviour of our government and local authorities. Absolutely outrageous 🤬🤬🤬🤬

With the size of Thurroc k and getting bigger, we need our own hospital as it's a nightmare to get an appointment with a doctor or specialist. My family and myself have resorted to paying for a consultant, as we often told its your age, wear and tear or arthritus.
