Practice Performance
GP Patient Survey
The GP Patient Survey is an independent survey run by Ipsos MORI on behalf of NHS England. The survey is sent out to over two million people across England. The results show how people feel about their GP practice.
Help us improve our services – we would love your feedback
Following the results of the 2025 GP National Patient Survey, we have put together an Action Plan to make our services better for you.
The plan focuses on:

- Enhancing your experience with our clinical staff
- Raising awareness of all the services we offer
We would really value your thoughts on our draft plan to make sure it is practical, patient-centred, and focused on what matters most to you. You will find the draft Action Plan below.
