The new health centre is part of a package of proposals to develop three new health centres in East Kilbride, Wishaw and Kilsyth.

Health secretary Alex Neil said: “Having the right facilities in the right place is important to people across Scotland and this development is a prime example of how continued investment in our NHS is benefiting patients, by providing them with quality care as close to home as possible. This is just one example of many major health projects for the people of Lanarkshire and right across Scotland.”
