Survey uncovers dental worries

Health chiefs in Yorkshire have also carried out a separate survey of 3,500 individuals and institutions.

In total 75 per cent of respondents were satisfied with the services provided by the NHS and 68 per cent said it was value for money.

Overall satisfaction with the NHS was 15 per cent higher than the UK average.

People who have used the NHS in the last 12 months are more satisfied than non-users.

Ambulance and GP services were most highly rated. Some 85 per cent of people were satisfied with quality of care provided by their GP although only 73 per cent were happy with waiting for a consultation.

Most concerns were expressed about A&E and dental services. About 81 per cent of patients were happy with the quality of dental care but just 45 per cent were happy with the selection of NHS dentists.

Children's medicine and cancer treatment were considered highest priorities.
