The service is performing well and meeting our expectations.
People’s experience
As part of the assessment process, we asked the practice to invite patients to share their experience of the service they received via the Give Feedback on Care form on the Care Quality Commission website. We received 237 responses. Of these, 72% were positive about the service they had received from the practice. The less positive responses were largely related to access. The GP Patient Survey for 2024 showed that the practice was performing better than local and national averages in areas such as how easy it is to get through to the practice, and the healthcare professional being good at listening to the patient. The practice did not perform so well in areas such as getting to see or speak to the preferred healthcare professional, and in having enough support from local services or organisations to manage long-term conditions. The practice had reviewed data from previous years as part of their primary care network capacity and access plan and had taken action to make improvements. For example, the practice had installed a cloud-based telephony system and told us that this would be upgraded in August 2024 to allow more functionality, including a call-back system. The practice had not undertaken its own patient survey and there was no Patient Participation Group (PPG) in place. The practice told us that plans were underway to create a primary care network wide PPG.

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.
