What CQC reported

The service is performing well and meeting our expectations.

People’s experience

Data from the National GP survey, NHS website, the practices own survey and feedback provided to CQC via our website, identified some areas of concern, for example, contacting the practice on the phone. We reviewed these during our site visit and found that the practice had updated the phone lines to significantly improve patient access to the surgery. There was an active Patient Participation Group (PPG) who represented the views of people the service. Representatives from the PPG described how managers made positive using changes because of feedback, such as updating the practice’s phone lines.

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.
