Ongoing Assessment for The Dove Medical Practice

Assessment dated 16 July 2024. Published 17 December 2024.

What CQC reported

The service is performing well and meeting our expectations.

People’s experience

In the 2024 National GP Patient Survey (01/01/2024 to 30/04/2024), the practice’s data for patient satisfaction was below local and national averages. For example, patients were less satisfied with their overall experience of the service and how involved they felt in their care and treatment. Similarly, satisfaction scores for access on the telephone and contacting the practice by other means (NHS APP and practice website) were also below local and national averages. Patient feedback gathered by the practice was more positive.

Feedback received as part of this assessment was mixed. Patients continued to tell us they struggled to access appointments but they were positive about the care they received. Patients commented positively on the attitude of staff and told us they felt they were respected and treated with care and kindness.

Evidence, not a league table.

CQC findings and GP Patient Survey results answer different questions and may cover different time periods. Neither confirms current appointment availability, NHS acceptance, opening hours or whether a provider is suitable for you.

Check the provider’s own website and the complete official CQC record before making a decision. If you need urgent medical help, use NHS 111 or call 999 in an emergency.
