NHS England You and your general practice

NHS England » You and your general practice

Your general practice is often the first point of contact within the NHS and plays a vital role in supporting your health and wellbeing. From routine check-ups and managing long-term conditions to providing advice and referring you to specialist services, your GP practice is here to offer accessible, high-quality care tailored to your needs.

This guide, developed by NHS England, aims to help you better understand how your general practice works, what services are available to you, and how you can get the most out of your care. Whether you're booking an appointment, accessing online services, or learning about new ways of working, we’re here to support your journey through general practice.
