The meeting was called to discuss concerns surrounding Letterkenny University Hospital and the positioning of a surgical hub in the North West. The meeting was arranged by the Minister in response to 171 clinicians calling for a pause and a review of the decision to select Sligo University Hospital for the site of a new surgical hub in the North West. The doctors and the Minister have agreed to meet again in two week’s time to discuss the issues raised after both sides have time to reflect and to gather further information.
