This paper reports the experience of one health board in using a postal survey to ascertain the views of local GPs concerning services for people suffering from dementia. The survey was sent out once only and had a 41% response rate. Non-responding GPs were surveyed to ascertain reasons for failure to respond initially to the survey. The commonest reason given was that GPs felt they were being swamped with questionnaires. The paper discusses the problems of accessing GP opinion when time and resources are limited, the alternative strategies that could have been employed and the way forward in the light of the experience. © Oxford University Press Research methods nationallicence MacPherson Isobel Priority Services Research Team, Department of General Practice, University of Aberdeen, Foresterhill Health Centre, West burn Road, Aberdeen AB9 2AY, UK, Summerfield House, 2 Eday Road, Aberdeen AB9 1RE, UK aut Bisset Ann Department of Public Health Medicine, Grampian Health Board Summerfield House, 2 Eday Road, Aberdeen AB9 1RE, UK aut Family Practice Oxford University Press 12/3(1995-09), 335-338 0263-2136 12:3<335 1995 12 famprj https://doi.org/10.1093/fampra/12.3.335 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI 1 research-article jats NATIONALLICENCE 856 40 https://doi.org/10.1093/fampra/12.3.335 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- MacPherson Isobel Priority Services Research Team, Department of General Practice, University of Aberdeen, Foresterhill Health Centre, West burn Road, Aberdeen AB9 2AY, UK, Summerfield House, 2 Eday Road, Aberdeen AB9 1RE, UK aut NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- Bisset Ann Department of Public Health Medicine, Grampian Health Board Summerfield House, 2 Eday Road, Aberdeen AB9 1RE, UK aut NATIONALLICENCE 773 0- Family Practice Oxford University Press 12/3(1995-09), 335-338 0263-2136 12:3<335 1995 12 famprj Metadata rights reserved CC BY-NC-4.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 nationallicence BK010053 XK010053 XK010000 NATIONALLICENCE NATIONALLICENCE NL-oxford
