A Loddon medical practice is celebrating after being rated as outstanding across all borders.
The Care Quality Commission carried out a review of Dr Barrie and Partners, known as Chet Valley Medical Practice, in July.
And in a report published this week, it rated the practice as outstanding across all five categories.
In the report, a letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice said: 'Patients said they were treated with compassion, dignity, and respect and they were involved in their care and decisions about their treatment.'
It added: 'There is an effective system in place for reporting and recording significant events.'
The report stated that risks to patients were well assessed and managed and there was a clear leadership structure in place.
The five areas they were rated as outstanding for was whether the practice was safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led.
The practice which opened in May 2011 provides services for approximately 8,500 patients.
