GPs are on your side

GP practices get just £107.57 a year for each patient, whatever their health needs. That’s less than the cost of a TV licence.

This means we’re only given 30p a day for every patient registered with us – less than the cost of an apple.

GPs want the same things that you do. 

We believe nobody should struggle to see their family doctor.

We believe general practice deserves a bigger slice of NHS funding so we can train and hire more GPs, deliver the services you require and make it easier to get appointments to see your GP and practice team.

We know you deserve better than this. GPs Are On Your Side.

Did you know that if general practice received a fairer share of NHS funding, we could:

  • Train and hire more GPs.
  • Deliver the services you require.
  • Make it easier to get the appointments you need.

This is why you struggle to see your GP.

Did you know that patients should be able to call us, send an email, or walk in to make an appointment and get the care they need?

But our contract makes it too complicated.

This is why you struggle to see your GP.

Did you know that GPs and their teams are exhausted and losing morale?

No matter how many hours we work, we still can’t see all the patients that need our care.

This is why you struggle to see your GP.

General Practice is being broken.

We know you deserve better than this.

GPs Are On Your Side.
