Every appointment, including clinics and reviews
- 43% same day (England 45%)
- 75% within two weeks (England 82%)
- 9% over four weeks (England 6%)
Many of these are booked ahead on purpose, such as vaccination clinics and medication reviews, so a longer gap is not always a wait.
The clock starts when the booking is made, so time spent trying to get through is not included. Each surgery chooses how to label its own appointments, which affects comparisons between surgeries.

How long callers waited before their call was answered. 5,458 calls answered.
Calls that never got through
- 8,082 calls came in
- 24% ended during the recorded message, before joining the queue (England 25%)
- 5% asked for a call back instead of waiting (England 7%)
The answered-call figures count only calls that were answered. A call can end in the queue because the caller gave up, was cut off or got through another way. A call that ends during the recorded message may have been dealt with by the message itself, for example opening hours.
No waits logged yet
Figures appear here once 10 people have logged a wait in the last 90 days. Official figures start the clock when a booking is made. Ours starts the first time you pick up the phone.
