A new NHS survey has revealed where Lewisham patients are having the best – and the most disappointing – experiences with their GP surgeries.
According to the 2025 GP Patient Survey, Deptford Medical Centre, Nightingale Surgery, and Lee Road Surgery were the top three rated practices in Lewisham, with more than 80 per cent of patients reporting a good experience.
Meanwhile, at the other end of the scale, The QRP Surgery, The Lewisham Care Partnership, and Triangle Group Practice received the lowest scores in the borough.
With rising demand and growing pressure on NHS staff, many surgeries are still working to recover post-pandemic.
The 2025 GP Patient Survey asked thousands of people across the UK to rate their experience of using GP services.
The results showed big differences between surgeries just minutes apart.
