NHS again

So where do we stand with this new NHS, I was told that doctors new best! they know their patients?, is all this right?, I feel not, the governments paper on health did away with Strategic Health Authorities and local Primary Care Trusts, has this happened? not likely, the PCT is now the Clinical Commissioning Group, and the SHA has now found another name to go by, so in fact we are paying a lot more for the commissioning services but the hospitals are squeezed dry, I can give some idea as to what patients want as I am one and have had to use the NHS many times over the years, what I want and need is nothing more than to be sent to my local hospital to be looked after, I do not want to go to private companies who profess to know what they are doing when in fact they are just making money and laughing all the way to the bank, we as the general public want a local hospital to look after us, they do not want to go all over England to receive treatment, many of us are old and do not travel well so we need to support our local hospital and we need to do everything in our power to keep this needed service.
