Dear Leith Hill Practice Patient

I would be very grateful indeed if you could complete this survey based on your experience at our surgeries. The doctors, nurses and administration team all want to provide the highest standard of service and care.

Feedback from this survey will help us to identify areas that may need improvement. Your opinions are so very valuable. Please answer ALL the questions that apply to you. There are no right or wrong answers and we will NOT be able to identify your individual answers.

Finally please add any comments or suggestions in the box near the end of the survey - this is often where the most valuable ideas and improvements come from! Thank you for your help.

To help us analyse your answers please tell us a few things about yourself

Many thanks for taking the time to complete this survey. We will be collecting and analysing the results and working with members of the Leith Hill Practice Patient Reference Group to decide what action we can take and how we can improve.

The results of the survey and a report on what we plan to do next will be published on our website, in our newsletter and in our waiting room in due course.
