One hundred and eighty three practitioners collected data on 110 000 consultations. Case mix and pattern of care are compared for doctors practising in different urban areas. Inner city areas are compared with outer areas and the most deprived with the most affluent. Case mix varies slightly between areas, but there are no systematic differences in the pattern of care, which is equally variable in different areas. The stereotype of inner city general practice is not confirmed.
183名从业者收集了110000次诊疗的数据。对在不同市区执业的医生的病例组合和护理模式进行了比较。将市中心城区与外围地区进行比较，最贫困地区与最富裕地区进行比较。不同地区之间的病例组合略有差异，但护理模式没有系统性差异，不同地区的护理模式差异同样较大。市中心城区全科医疗的刻板印象未得到证实。
