I am glad to read that you have published summary of the letter signed by the consultants.

I am one of the consultants who signed the letter. I work at Fairfield and live in Rochdale and I am very fond of both towns and its people. They deserve the best possible service.

We have Rochdale Infirmary and Fairfield hospitals within 4 miles and the time is right for us to combine these two hospitals and have a big single hospital which will serve people of Rochdale, Bury, Heywood and Rosendale Valley.

I sincerely request people of Bury and Rochdale to join us and ask for a single hospital which could provide good quality service.
