THE NHS has put out a call for feedback on sevices in the area.

NHS West Essex is providing comment cards for residents to criticise, praise and comment on local health services.

Sheona Johnson, Lead for Safeguarding Vulnerable Adults and Quality with NHS West Essex, said: "We hope that peoples' experience of local health services was a positive one but we also appreciate that sometimes things do not go to plan.

"We are keen to gather comments, good or bad, about our local health services such as GPs, local hospitals, dentists and pharmacists."

Comment cards can be downloaded from the NHS West Essex website www.westessexpct.nhs.uk. Click on the 'Tell us About Your Experience' link.

Alternatively the cards can be collected from The Limes Medical Centre, The Plain, Epping; Ongar Health Centre, Bansons Lane, Ongar; main reception at the Epping Forest Unit, St Margaret's Hospital (new building), and reception at Building 4, Spencer Close, St Margaret's Hospital, Epping.
