The CQC was highly critical of Botolph Bridge Community Health Centre in Sugar Way after inspecting it in June, with its report stating that patients were left at risk. A follow-up inspection took place two months’ later, with the findings now released.

Inspectors noted that improvements have been made, including bringing in more locum GPs. But the employment of a new member of staff from July to undertake medicine reviews was said to have again left patients at risk.

The Peterborough Telegraph twice left messages with a staff member at the surgery asking if somebody would like to comment but did not hear back.
