William Wragg MP for the Hazel Grove constituency welcomed the news that Marple Bridge GP has been named the best in our region.
William said, "It is great to see that so many people are happy with the service their local doctor has been able to provide - 100% to be precise. It's a testament to the hard work of the doctors and staff, well done".

A doctors’ surgery in Stockport is the best in Greater Manchester – at least as far as patients are concerned.
The Marple Bridge Surgery has performed best of all practices in the region in a nationwide study .
A total of 2.4 million questionnaires were sent out as part of the GP Patient Survey and 854,000 patients responded with their views.
Astonishingly, 100 per cent of patients at Marple Bridge said they were happy their doctor listened to them when they explained what was wrong. And 98.9 per cent said they would recommend the surgery to a newcomer to the area.
A total of 99.5 said their GP gave them enough time, and 98.5 per cent said they had a good experience the last time they made an appointment.
