Dr Hutchinson was a breath of fresh air in Whitburn Health Centre, so I'm disappointed she's now moved to a surgery in East Calder. She was very down to earth and you actually felt you were speaking to another living, breathing, feeling, human being when you were seen by her. Today in the clinic I over heard two patients discussing with staff of their disappoinment that she's moved on and the staff voiced their disapointment to.

I think the day of Doctors being rather 'removed' from their patients should be cast to the past and they should be more caring and compassionate towards their patients. People skills are just as important in medicine as intellectual ability - or at least it should be!
