About us
For most people, using the NHS means a visit to their GP. GPs have always had a say in developing local health services, but now they have taken on much greater responsibility to commission (which means to plan, buy and monitor) NHS services. To do this, they have joined together as a new group called Barking and Dagenham Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG).
