Publication of GP earnings

Article Date: 19th March 2021

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 Mount Farm Surgery in the 2019-2020 financial year was £67,736 before tax and National Insurance. This is for 3 full time GPs, 5 part time GPs and 1 locum GP who worked in the practice for more than six months. 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 judgement about GP earnings, nor to make any comparison with any other practice.
