Dentists needs to be available in all areas, says Ramsey member
Dentists need to be available in the right parts of the Island.
That's according to Ramsey MHK Lawrie Hooper, who is asking about the Island's oral health strategy at this month's sitting of Tynwald.
He wants to know when the Department of Health and Social Care plans to update its approach to dental care.
Having heard from residents in the north struggling to get an appointment with an NHS dentist, Mr Hooper wants to see progress:
