The accessibility of primary care to urban patients: a geographical analysis.

P L Knox.   

Abstract

Techniques of analysis now used in geography can be applied to general practice. They show that the locations of general practitioners' premises are not randomly distributed and are not related to the sites of populations or to patients in greatest need of medical services. The findings suggest a concentration of surgeries in middle class areas and lack of surgeries in areas of low social class.
