I'm disappointed that the AW Brown Dental Practice has chosen to withdraw from providing NHS care to their current patients in Felixstowe. Unfortunately, Government cannot stop dentists from refusing to provide such care. The government has invested in dentistry and will continue to do so, including strengthening the contract with dentists. I am pleased that the local NHS will be taking on responsibility for securing local NHS dental provision, as we want to avoid dental deserts in Felixstowe and the county.
