What is the Patient Participation Group (PPG)?
A group of people joining together in a voluntary capacity to enhance the Practice by working alongside the doctors and nurses on behalf of and representing the patients.
This is your chance to help us make sure that the services at the Surgery, and more widely across local healthcare, meet your needs. We’ll be asking what you think about various topics.
What does it involve?
We ask you to provide your email details so that we can contact you every now and again to ask questions about the surgery, how well we are doing and to identify areas for improvement. We also ask that members attend a PPG meeting held at the surgery usually every three months. This is to discuss issues affecting the Practice and help us to deliver the best service we can. Ultimately, the PPG involves enabling patients to get the best out of their doctor, and just as importantly, enabling the doctors to get the best out of their patients.
We would like to get as many patients involved as possible, to make sure we get a wide range of views. You won’t need to attend all meetings if you do not wish to. You will be able to submit comments, by email or if you prefer, by letter.

Anyone who is a patient registered at the Practice can become a member. To join simply contact us. We look forward to meeting you.
