Greyed practices recorded fewer than 100 routine appointments in the month; their percentages are unreliable.
Ranking is by the share of routine appointments seen within 7 days of booking. A low figure can reflect how a practice books planned reviews rather than how hard it is to be seen when unwell. How to read the numbers.
