GP practices in Stockport
32 practices, in groups by their label, which comes from the Practice Grade and its margin of error, never from your choices. Within each group, the practice that fits the Practice Grade best comes first. There are no places: practices next to each other are often within each other’s margin of error.

Questions and answers
How do you put the practices in order?
You pick what matters to you, and we order the practices in your area by how their patients answered the GP Patient Survey questions on those things. A star counts twice. If you pick nothing, we order by the Practice Grade. The order is inside groups: practices clearly above the England average first, then practices that cannot be told apart from it, then the rest from A to Z.
Why are there no places or rank numbers?
Every survey figure has a margin of error, and practices next to each other in the list can often not be told apart. The order helps you find practices worth a closer look; the label says what the figures can support.
What if a practice has no figure for something I picked?
It is ordered on the things it has figures for, so a missing figure never counts against it. A practice with no figure for any of your choices comes last in its group. Too few answers to a question also means no figure.
Do my choices change a practice’s label?
No. The label comes from the Practice Grade and its margin of error, the same as on the practice’s own page. Your choices only change the order inside each group.
Where do the figures come from?
The Practice Grade comes from the 2026 GP Patient Survey and NHS appointment and phone data. The questions you pick come from the 2026 GP Patient Survey, run by Ipsos for NHS England, and how soon routine appointments were booked from NHS England’s Appointments in General Practice. Each practice page shows every figure with its source.
