As reported in The Press, Bishopthorpe's only GP practice - the Old School Medical Centre - is to close by the summer with patients expected to travel to a sister surgery in Copmanthorpe.
The closure has been controversial because there is no direct bus link between Bishopthorpe and Copmanthorpe and residents say it could be difficult for elderly or vulnerable patients to see a GP.
Under the planning application, the former doctor's surgery at 46 Church Lane, which was once a house, could be converted back to a family home.
