PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(22 April 2025)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what the average number of patients per GP is in (a) Wiltshire (b) England.

Asked by:
Sarah Gibson (Liberal Democrat)

Answer

As of 31 March 2025, the median number of full time equivalent doctors in general practice (GP) per 10,000 registered patients was:

  • 6.6 in Wiltshire; and
  • 5.6 in England.

GPs employed through the Additional Roles Reimbursement Scheme are not included as they are employed by primary care networks (PCNs), rather than directly by practices. PCNs’ work may occur across county borders, so it is not possible to say how many PCN employed staff work in Wiltshire.
