Profiles for GP Services have now been added to the CQC website


From 1 April, all GP services, such as doctors' surgeries and walk-in centres, came under the CQC's system of regulation. More than 8,500 profiles of these services have been added to the CQC online directory of care services.
You can search for any of these services, and GP out-of-hours services that were registered last April, by clicking on the GP services tab on the CQC website. 
You can search by the name of the service, a place name or your postcode. Once you have found the service you are interested in, you can let the CQC know about your experience of it using a dedicated form. You can find out more about the inspection process for GPs and enter your experiences of a GP surgery at the CQC website
GPs and healthcare providers can find out more about the registration process and what the registration and regulations will mean for you at the dedicated section on the CQC website.  
If you are a healthcare provider and would like help with the CQC registration process, visit the Words Worth Reading Ltd website for details on the consultancy support services we offer.
