People's experience of the service

Updated 12 July 2024

In the 2024 National GP Patient Survey, the four key indicators we use to measure access were below or in line with or above the local and national averages. The practice showed a decrease to 14% regarding access to the practice by phone. The provider told us negative feedback was for telephone access and the provider had completed an external telephone access audit and implemented call waiting and talk to text function. Data we reviewed showed telephone access was readily available and no delays of wait times were shown. The remaining three indicators related to; overall experience of making an appointment; satisfaction with GP practice appointment time; and satisfaction with the appointments they were offered. All three were considered comparable to the local and and national averages. The practice had reviewed and were actively responding to the survey results to continuously improve patient experience and regularly completed patient feedback exercises.
