Certainly all areas within Ipswich. The new surgery at three rivers is fantastic and can surely free up some cheap housing and funding for the NHS where the current small surgeries could be converted to housing quickly and cheaply

NHS England working with the CCG, Local Authorities and local stakeholders has begun to address Primary Care capacity issues in the area and currently have projects to increase capacity underway across Ipswich. These projects vary in size and will initially deliver additional capacity to meet current planned growth requirements to 2021.
NHS England and the CCG would welcome further discussions with the Local Authorities with regard to density of development and cumulative growth over the plan period within specific areas, to understand the impact and how this may be mitigated.
In line with the Five Year Forward View please replace the use of the description 'super surgeries' with 'primary care hubs' this represents the ambition to provide a range of services from within a single premises or across a number of sites within a locality rather than the sole provision of current GP services.
Regarding infrastructure items please replace 'surgeries' with healthcare facilities.

Super Surgeries should be located in each quarter of the town along the same lines as the current Area Committees. They must be served by good public transport links to decrease the potential alienation of sections of the community.
