Patient Participation Group

ABOUT THE PPG

The Patient Participation Group (PPG) is aimed at providing a link between the surgery and its patients. We are committed to establishing this group to enable the practice to better understand its patients and provide better healthcare through communication and access to surgery facilities. The group will have input into the way the practice runs and the services it provides. We are looking to recruit a cross representation of our patients to help improve our services.

If you would like to find out who your representative is please contact reception.
