GP Earnings

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 judgement about GP earnings, nor to make any comparison with any other practice.
The average pay for GPs working in Nethergreen Surgery in the financial year 2024/2025 was £80,421 before tax and National Insurance. This is for 8 part time GPs and 1 locum GP who worked in the practice for more than six months.
