THE latest GP Patient Survey has revealed the best and worst rated doctors’ surgeries in the Bradford district, as voted for by patients.

The annual survey reveals how patients feel about the service at their GP practice allowing them to have a say on their care, while also giving a GP practice an insight into how it can improve patient experience.

It covers the whole range of service provided by GP practices, from the ease of booking an appointment, the quality of service provided, experience during appointments and general health questions.

The results are then compiled to give each GP practice a score on people’s overall experience and reveals which of the district’s 71 doctors’ surgeries are performing the best – and which are performing the worst.

The top-rated practice is Sunnybank Medical Centre in Wyke, which gained a good rating from 99 per cent of its patients, and it was followed by Ashwell Medical Practice in Manningham which was praised by 95 per cent of patients.

At the other end of the scale was Peel Park Surgery in Undercliffe which was only rated good by 54 per cent of patients, and Bradford Student Health Service in Shearbridge which scored 55 per cent.

The average score for GPs across the district was 80 per cent of patients saying the service was good.
