What CQC reported

The service is performing well and meeting our expectations.

People’s experience

The National GP Patient Survey published in July 2023 showed feedback was below the local and/or national England averages for all indicators relating to access. Historic data also showed a decline in satisfaction with phone accessibility and overall appointment experience. Feedback from patients gathered via the patient participation group supported this. Feedback that had been collected from people who shared their experience directly with CQC showed the majority raised concerns about the challenges of obtaining an appointment and long phone wait times. Some also shared their dissatisfaction of the new online consultation tool that the practice implemented in August 2023 citing the process to be inefficient and ineffective. Other feedback, such as data from the Family and Friends test, indicated an improvement in overall patient satisfaction about the service offered.

Read this profile carefully

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.
