An NHS dentist in Harrogate could close and move its patients to Starbeck if planned changes go ahead.
Chatsworth House Dental Centre, based on Kings Road, sent out letters to its patients to tell them about the plans to merge with Starbeck Dental Centre.
Under the proposals, patients would need to travel 1.7 miles to the practice on Starbeck High Street - a six-minute drive or more than 30-minute walk.
The service provider, Target Dental Group, has not formally approached the NHS with its proposal and it is unclear what the timescale is for the closure.
The Stray Ferret approached the provider for a comment but received no response by the time of publication.
