This study examines the spatial distribution of general practice in London, taking into account both practice and population characteristics. While need for general practice is higher in inner London, some areas of outer London experience high levels of need. Inner London tends to have a greater quantity but lower quality of general practice. However, as in the case of the needs indices, this situation cannot be described as a simple inner city/outer city dichotomy. It is concluded that not all inner London areas suffer from high need and poor general practice and not all outer London areas have low need and good general practice.
本研究考察了伦敦全科医疗的空间分布情况，同时考虑了医疗机构和人口特征。虽然伦敦市中心对全科医疗的需求较高，但伦敦市外围的一些地区也面临着较高的需求水平。伦敦市中心的全科医疗数量往往较多，但质量较低。然而，与需求指数的情况一样，这种情况不能简单地描述为市中心/市外围的二分法。研究得出的结论是，并非所有伦敦市中心地区都面临高需求和低质量的全科医疗，也并非所有伦敦市外围地区的需求都低且全科医疗质量好。
