The GP surgery is the first place we go when we’re feeling unwell, with it often described as the “front door” of the NHS.
Patients across Leicestershire have shared whether their GP practice is meeting their needs in the latest GP Patient Survey, produced by Ipsos on behalf of NHS England.
More than 700,000 patients in England completed the 2025 survey, which was carried out between January and March 2025, with the 2026 survey currently underway.
It gathers information on how patients feel about their local surgery. Patients were asked a range of questions about their last appointment as part of the survey, including whether they felt their needs had been met.
Across the country, the majority of patients said their needs had ‘definitely’ been met (57%) or had been met ‘to some extent’ (33%).
Here we reveal the surgeries in Leicestershire which are meeting patients’ needs the best. Surgeries are ranked by the proportion of patients who said their needs had ‘definitely’ been met during their last appointment.
