In addition to our first PPG newsletter, please find in the document below information on the Surgery and the work completed. This provides a snapshot for 3 months from January to March to give you all an idea of the ‘goings on’ behind the scenes. The document also includes graphs for waiting times to show when our quieter periods are, for if you need to make a non-urgent phone call to us, i.e. for a blood test or nurses appointment. All of this information has been gathered over 12 weeks. If it is useful, please let us know below by completing the feedback below, and another edition will be completed to accompany the Summer 2025 newsletter.

Vaccination Survey
Healthwatch Devon, Plymouth and Torbay are currently exploring changing attitudes towards vaccines by collecting local opinions on vaccination uptake, satisfaction with vaccination services, and confidence in the vaccination programme. We aim to gather as broad a selection of input from across Devon, Plymouth and Torbay as possible and we would be grateful if you are able to share your own views with us and if possible, distribute the link below via your networks, newsletters and social media channels. The survey should take no longer than 5 minutes to complete. Thank you!
