Hello. I would like to welcome you back to the 'virtual' Patient Participation Group (or say "Hello" if you are a newcomer).

It has been another busy year in the surgery and I hope you have seen some of the improvements that we put in place after your assistance last year, which were refelected in the Patient Survey and subsequent results.

I would be grateful if you could take the time to answer the survey below. This will enable me to focus on the issues that are important leading into 2013.

Many thanks
Steve Mowatt
Practice Manager
