GP net 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.

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.

For the year ended 31 March 2025

The average pay for GPs working in Ventnor Medical Practice in the last financial year was £149,181 before tax and National Insurance. This is for 2 part time GPs and 1 long term locum GPs who worked in the practice for six months or more.

Understanding GP Partnerships

A GP partnership is a collaborative arrangement where General Practitioners (GPs) come together to manage and operate a medical practice. This partnership model allows GPs to share responsibilities, resources, and expertise, ensuring the delivery of high-quality healthcare services to patients.

Key Features of GP Partnerships:

  1. Shared Responsibilities: Partners work collectively to manage the practice, including clinical duties, administrative tasks, and financial management.
  2. Collaborative Decision-Making: Decisions regarding the practice’s operations, patient care, and strategic direction are made jointly, ensuring a balanced approach that considers diverse perspectives.
  3. Resource Sharing: By pooling resources, GP partnerships can offer a wider range of services and invest in better facilities and equipment, enhancing patient care.
  4. Financial Management: Partners share the financial risks and rewards of running the practice, which can include managing budgets, expenses, and revenues.
  5. Legal Structure: Most GP partnerships operate under a partnership agreement, which outlines the obligations, responsibilities, and rights of each partner. This agreement is crucial for ensuring smooth operations and resolving any disputes that may arise.
  6. Flexibility and Support: Being part of a partnership provides GPs with support from their colleagues, allowing for flexible working arrangements and shared on-call duties.
