Improve local GP services

[Emski]

There's a meeting of Southwark's Clinical Commissioning Group on Weds - and an opportunity to let them know what's wrong with health services in the area. Please go along to complain about how it is impossible to get a GP appointment!

Hi Emski,

Thanks for this, do you happen to know where it is on? Its not on the link, and just want to think logistically before I book a place.

Thank you :)

GP services are commissioned via NHS England, not the local CCG. This change came about with the demise of PCT's. As some GP's form part of CCG's, they cannot therefore commission their own local services.

So I understand that concerns regarding particular local GP provision really ought to be addressed to NHSE.

I assume therefore that this event is about Walk In/Urgent Care Centres within Southwark rather than GP Practices?
