NHS bosses are facing 'huge disappointment' after shelving controversial plans to merge six doctors' surgeries into a health "super hub".The proposed Shrewsbury Health and Wellbeing Hub received a backlash from many residents, who had concerns about having to travel further to see a medic and not being able to have a regular GP.
