For complaints and general feedback about hospitals, GP practices and other NHS services including dentistry, pharmacists and mental health service, see feedback and complaints about NHS services.

For complaints about adult social care services, contact the Local Government and Social Care Ombudsman.

For complaints and queries about children’s social care services, contact the Department for Education.

For complaints and queries about NHS penalty charges, Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme payments and help with health costs, contact the NHS Business Services Authority.
