Please give us your feedback

It is important that we know what is going well, and what could be improved.

We collect feedback via the Friends and Family Test (FFT). This is a very short anonymous survey to collect responses based on recent experience. Submit a response via our FFT webform.

Every year there is also a national GP Patient Survey. The survey is sent to a sample of patients during January to March. If you are sent the survey, please fill it in.

You can also send us feedback by emailing us at: 

Complaints

We try to provide the best service possible, but sometimes things do go wrong. We always try to learn and improve from complaints.

If you make a complaint, we will:

  • Acknowledge your complaint within three working days
  • Offer to discuss your complaint with you where appropriate and agree a timeframe for responding
  • Investigate and, where appropriate, respond to your complaint fully.

How to complain

You can make your complaint directly to the practice or to NHS England.
