Asked by:

This data is not collected at constituency level. Such data as is available can be found in the table below.

Total general practitioners (GPs) in selected area: full time equivalents 2009-14

	2009	2010	2011	2012	2013	2014
Leeds Primary Care Trust1	502	506	514	516	.	.
NHS Leeds South and East Clinical Commissioning Group1	.	.	.	.	164	169

Notes:

Data as at 30 September for each year

¹ GP workforce figures are not available by constituency. Leeds East constituency is contained within and serviced by NHS Leeds South and East CCG and prior to the formation of CCGs, Leeds East was contained within Leeds PCT. These two National Health Service organisations are not geographically co-terminus and therefore 2009-12 figures are not comparable to 2013-14 figures.

'.' denotes not available

Data Quality:

The Health and Social Care Information Centre seeks to minimise inaccuracies and the effect of missing and invalid data but responsibility for data accuracy lies with the organisations providing the data. Methods are continually being updated to improve data quality where changes impact on figures already published. This is assessed but unless it is significant at national level figures are not changed. Impact at detailed or local level is footnoted in relevant analyses.
