A GP Practice in North Lanarkshire could be brought back into use - 12 years after it closed.
Residents in Caldercruix and Plains, near Airdrie, are being asked to way in on plans to re-establish the NHS surgery on the Caldercruix Main Street.
The previous practice was closed in 2014 despite almost 200 villagers signing a petition to keep it running.
The new proposal aims to improve access to medical services for people living nearby with the new surgery to provide bookable appointments delivered by the Centenary Surgery.
Before reaching a final decision, NHS Lanarkshire bosses say they want to hear the views of residents, patients, community organisations, healthcare professionals and other interested parties to gauge the level of support for this proposal.

To take part in the consultation exercise, please complete an online questionnaire can be completed HERE.
NHS Lanarkshire primary care manager Alistair Mackintosh, said: “This is only a proposal, however, we would like to gauge how local people feel about it and the survey will help us capture this.
“For example, people will be able to record whether they feel they already have adequate access to GP services in their area or whether they feel there are gaps or deficiencies in service to the neighbourhood.”
The results of the engagement exercise will be summarised in a consultation analysis report which will be considered by NHS Lanarkshire as part of the decision-making process.
