Overview
- Local outlets converted the NHS GP Patient Survey 2026 into practice-by-practice rankings published between July 12 and July 15, using combined category shares for positive and negative responses.
- Top‑ranked practices include Quakers Lane Surgery in North Yorkshire at 100% positive and Reeth Medical Centre at 99%, while Crompton View Surgery in Bolton recorded 98% positive from 95 respondents.
- Some surgeries recorded high combined 'poor' scores, with Eastfield Medical Centre in Scarborough at a 33% combined poor rating and Haxby Group Scarborough at 24%.
- The rankings are based only on respondents and on summed category proportions (for example 'very good' plus 'fairly good'); borough and practice response counts varied widely, for example Bolton returned 4,029 responses from 25,102 surveys sent (about 16%).
- NHS sources and local reporters caution that small and uneven sample sizes mean these lists show respondent views rather than whole practice performance so readers should use them alongside other measures such as national averages and operational indicators.
