Doctors: Surrey

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many doctors there were in hospitals in Surrey in the latest period for which figures are available.

Answer

NHS Digital publishes Hospital and Community Health Services workforce statistics for England. These include staff working in hospital trusts and clinical commissioning groups (CCGs), but not staff working in primary care, local authorities or other providers.

Data is held by organisation not place of work. Individuals may work on more than one site within a trust.

As at June 2019, the latest available data, there were over 1,200 full time equivalent doctors at Surrey and Borders Partnership NHS Foundation Trust, Royal Surrey County Hospital NHS Foundation Trust and Surrey and Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust, full time equivalent.
