⚠️ Important Notice: Changes to reception queue

In March we are piloting a new approach to managing queues at reception to help prevent patients from missing their appointments. It can be difficult to predict periods of high demand at our reception desk, and when queues build up — particularly if some patients experience difficulties using the self check-in screen — this can lead to delays and, in some cases, missed appointments.

To address this, we are introducing a new express lane at the reception desk solely for patients attending pre-arranged appointments. We hope this will make arrival and check-in more efficient and straightforward. We will be gathering feedback and reviewing the trial to ensure it is beneficial for our patients.

GP earnings

All GP practices are required to declare the mean earnings (e.g. average pay) for the GPs working to deliver NHS services to patients at each practice.

The required disclosure is shown below. However it should be noted that the prescribed method for calculating earnings is potentially misleading because it takes no account of how much time doctors spend working in the practice, and should not be used to form any judgement about GP earnings, nor to make any comparison with other practices.

The average pay for GPs working in Sixways Clinic in the last financial year was £76,830 before tax and National Insurance. This is for 5 full time GPs and 2 part time GPs who worked in the practice for more than 6 months.
