GP Earnings

Publication of Average Earnings 2021/22

Freshwell Health Centre provides this information, for those interested persons, in order to comply with requirements under the GP contract. However, we do not believe that publishing our earnings is either appropriate or relevant to the clinical care of our patients.

“NHS England require that the net earnings of Doctors engaged in the Practice is publicised, and the required disclosure is shown below. However it should be noted that the prescribed method for calculating earnings is potentially misleading because it takes no account of how much time Doctors spend working in the Practice, and should not be used to form any judgment about GP earnings, nor to make any comparison with any other Practice.

All GP Practices are required to declare the mean earnings (e.g. average pay) for GPs working to deliver NHS services to patients at each Practice. The average pay for GPs working in The Freshford Practice in the last financial year was £63,961 before tax and national insurance. This is for six part-time GPs and 2 locum GPs who worked in the Practice for more than 6 months”.
