Sandy Walkington described tonight's meeting to question the Primary Care Trust management over the cancelled St Albans Urgent Care Centre as "truly depressing".
"We were told that Anne Walker, chief executive of the PCT, was out of the country. I'm not surprised given the gibberish spoken tonight by her underlings," Sandy said.
"The first choice for local residents would be a full service hospital in what is the most populous district in Hertfordshire. We couldn't have that so we were promised a super-hospital at Hatfield instead. Then we were told we couldn't have that so we were promised an Urgent Care Centre. Now it turns out we cannot even have that.
"It feels like an endless down escalator with decisions being made on the back of an envelope," Sandy said. "No wonder local people think the NHS has left them."
"All we got from the two PCT representatives was evasive management speak. St Albans is owed better given the sad history of let-down and betrayal," Sandy concluded.
