Family Practitioner Services

If your complaint is about the services provided by a family practitioner - GP, Dentist, Pharmacist, Optician, you should where ever possible inform someone at the practice - doctor, nurse, practice manager. Each practice has a nominated person to deal with complaints. In many cases it should be possible to sort out the problem immediately and it is important that the practice is given the opportunity to respond to your concerns. West Gloucestershire Primary Care Trust can facilitate an Independent Conciliation Service to try to resolve such complaints through discussions with those involved.


Community Services


If you wish to complain about Community Services such as Health Visiting, District Nursing, Podiatry, Occupational Therapy and Adult Speech and Language Tharapy, you should contact the Complaints Manager at the West Gloucestershire Primary care Trust
