Comments, compliments and complaints
We do all we can to provide good quality health services, but sometimes things don’t go as they should.
We welcome people telling us about how we can improve, or make a complaint about the service they have received from the NHS in Croydon.
We are also very pleased to receive positive feedback and compliments about our work or the quality of health services you have received as a local resident. Please complete our feedback form.
Complaints about GPs, dentists, pharmacists or opticians
From 1 April 2013, if you have a complaint about a GP, dentist, pharmacist or optician that cannot be resolved locally with the practice manager or pharmacist, you should contact NHS England.
