Dental hub plan is ‘unravelling’
Na h-Eileanan an Iar MSP Alasdair Allan has said the case for the Uist dental hub is ‘unravelling’ in his submission to the Western Isles Integrated Joint Board’s consultation on dental services in Uist.
The IJB said its preferred model for the delivery of dental care in Uist is to have a single service operating from Uist and Barra Hospital. That would involve the closure of the dental clinics in Lochmaddy and Liniclate, with the clinic in Lochboisdale already having been closed.
