Complaints Procedure – Changes to the patient complaints process

 

 From 1 July 2023 the way members of the public make a complaint about GP services to the commissioner is changing and they will now need to contact NHS North East London instead of NHS England.

  • Patients can do this by:

  • Telephone – 020 8221 5750 (It will have a voicemail facility for people to leave messages)
