Dear Mr Harman, 

 

Re:      Freedom of Information request (Our Ref: FOI-054420)

 

Thank you for your Freedom of Information (FOI) request dated 19 September
2017.

 

Your exact request was:-

 

“Please provide a list of contact details for GP surgeries in England with
the following fields:

 

Practice Name

Salutation (for Practice Manager)

First Name (for Practice Manager)

Last Name (for Practice Manager)

 

Phone Number/ Direct Dial

Practice Manager direct email address

Practice email address

Practice Web Address

 

Number of staff at the surgery (if possible)”

NHS England does not hold this information.

 

It may help if we explain that the NHS in England is not a single
organisation but is made up of a range of organisations such as Hospitals,
Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) and Ambulance Trusts. NHS England is
responsible for commissioning primary care services such as GP and dental
surgeries, as well as some specialised secondary care services. Therefore,
any recorded information NHS England may be able to provide in response to
an FOI request will generally relate to the services NHS England
commissions. For information on commissioned services and the types of
information NHS England holds can be found on our [1]website and
[2]publication scheme. For further information on the NHS, its structure
and other NHS organisations please refer to NHS Choices [3]here.

 

NHS England does not employ practice staff and as such does not hold the
information you have requested. As such, you may wish to redirect your
enquiry to individual GP practices. You can find GP practice information,
organised by Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) on the NHS Choices website
at the following web link:

You may also find that some of the information you have requested is
available via the above link, on the web pages of individual GP practices.

have the right to ask for an internal review by writing to us, within two
