GP practice closures and mergers in England
1,530 GP practice codes closed in England between 2017 and 2025, most in 2018 (305). 59 closed in the 12 months to September 2026. A practice code also closes when practices merge, so a closure does not always mean patients lost their surgery.
Latest data: September 2026. GP Patient Survey 2026; registered patients September 2026.
