General practices offered more than 925,000 appointments to patients across Kent and Medway in April 2024.
Around 62 per cent of these consultations were face-to-face or home visits. This is 150,000 more consultations than in April 2023.
The data, released by NHS England, also shows more than 37,000 people did not attend their consultations so we are urging anyone who can longer attend any appointment to let their practice know.
