A very good surgery with good follow up, when necessary. I am concerned about the future, the government have put the partners in such an untenable position they have had to give notice so that the surgery can survive. In future we will have only the core NHS part available, I believe that people will be shocked how much they are going to loose from our surgery.

Response from Sutherland Lodge Surgery
Thank you for your kind comments, we too are very concerned for the future of Primary Care within the NHS. We see 90% of patients and only receive less than 9% of the NHS budget. This is now being culled even more with money being recycled and spread too thinly. The 'outstanding' accolade we received from the government's own quality assessor just proves that a little money put into primary care actually works. Why cannot surgeries be brought up to this standard instead of successful practices being brought down? Please continue to fight for Primary Care. The Partners here are devastated that they have had no alternative.
