The best and worst Hackney GPs as rated by patients
A survey has revealed which Hackney GP surgeries are rated best and worst by their patients.
NHS England commissions the GP Patient Survey annually and this year’s results show that 71% of patients nationally described their GP as ‘good’.
Three surgeries in Islington outperformed this figure, boasting patient satisfaction of more than 90%.
There was not a single GP in the area where less than 60% of patients rated their experience as ‘good’.
Best performing GPs
The Nightingale Practice in Lower Clapton and The Stratham Grove Surgery in Stoke Newington were the Hackney GPs best rated by patients.
For both, 93% of patients said that their overall experience of the practice was ‘good’.
The Nightingale Practice was said to be better at ensuring that patients usually get to see or speak to their preferred GP when they would like to (49% compared to 35% at The Stratham Grove Surgery).
But 81% of patients at the Stoke Newington practice said they find it easy to contact the surgery by phone, compared to 72% at the GP in Lower Clapton.
The Wick Health Centre in Homerton also performed highly in the survey, with 91% of patients rating it ‘good’.

Why are GP practices working differently?
GP practices are open but the pandemic is not over
GP practices in north east London are open and now seeing thousands more people than before the pandemic –
but we have increased the number of appointments available over the phone so that people can have their
consultation at home. This means you don't have to travel to the surgery and your risk of exposure to Covid is
reduced. If your condition means you need to see a GP face-to-face we will arrange this.
In north east London there are still thousands of people getting Covid-19, with hundreds in intensive care.
GP practices treated people throughout the Covid lockdowns and continue to do so. To protect everyone, we
must maintain safe infection control and minimise unnecessary physical contact.

Flu clinics
Please look out for information in the coming weeks for flu clinics.
When your Child is unwell
Childhood illnesses are rising as restrictions ease and people mix more. For the majority of children these illnesses will not be serious and they will soon recover following rest and fluids. You can make sure you know how to care for your unwell child and when it’s important to get help by visiting www.eastlondonhcp.nhs.uk/unwellchild. Your NHS is here for you.
National guidelines face covers from 19th July
Despite the relaxation of rules governing face coverings; national guidance still recommends face-masks in health care settings, and we will still require all patients attending the practice to wear a mask unless they are exempt on medical grounds until future notice. Thanks for continuing to help keep our staff and vulnerable patients safe.
