GP Earnings

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 Dr Castle & Partners in the last financial year was £56,685 before tax and National Insurance, a decrease of £5,975 compared to those achieved for 2021/22 of £62,660. This is as a result of a decrease in partnership profits. This is for 1 full time GP, 9 part time GPs and 3 locum GPs 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.
