I notice that the Jehovah's Witness Hall on David's Road is for rent and the gym that is a couple of doors away may also be a potential location. A new practice would need to be in the centre of Forest Hill and I personally think that Louise House is a bit too close to Wells Park Practice and would need substantial investment to convert to a GP surgery (not a cheap endevour even in the best economic climate). But if Louise House was a possibility then I would be in favour of this and the benefit of using the building for community use between the library and pool might work well.

I used the walk in centre in New Cross. Very nice, but nobody knew anything that was happening in the building and I would far prefer to go to a local GP for most services. The closure of the walk in centre makes the need for local GPs stronger.

Before a couple of sites in David's Road became more likely, I did have a thought about converting the ambulance station to a GP practice (benefit is that it is already owned by the NHS) and I don't see why ambulances should not operate out of the fire station or the old council depot in Willow Way (I knew it would come in handy one day!)
