GP Patient Survey

National Results 2026

We would like to thank all of our patients that were sent and completed the GP survey 2026. Of those who completed the survey 91% of patients described their overall experience of our practice as good. We are hugely proud of this achievement and would also like to take this opportunity to thank all our staff for their continued hard work and dedication.

NHS England together with Ipsos, have today published the latest Official Statistics from the GP Patient Survey.

The latest survey consisted of around 2.5 million questionnaires sent out to patients aged 16 or over registered with GP practices in England, from January to March 2026.

Results are weighted. Weighting ensures results are more representative of the population of patients aged 16 or over registered with a GP practice.

Our achievements are measured against the national average and the ICS average (ICS is the Integrated Care System for Dorset). Our scores were higher than the national and county averages in virtually all areas.

We are very proud and grateful to have such dedicated, kind and compassionate staff that make the team at The Newman Practice.
