A survey of patients at GP surgeries across Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin has revealed big differences between the highest and lowest performing practices.

The results of the 2025 GP Patient Survey prompted Telford & Wrekin Council’s chief executive to challenge his colleagues at a meeting “what are we going to do about it?”

The patient survey, with responses from 5,827 patients, saw six practices across the area marked as the ‘lowest performing’ with less than 65 per cent of patients rating Donnington , Teldoc, Wellington , Riverside, Marden and Severn Fields as “good”.

This compared with Brown Clee (96 per cent), Prescott (96 per cent), Station Drive (94 per cent), Bishop’s Castle (94 per cent), Craven Arms and seven others getting scores of 90 per cent or more.
