Family therapy is being used in a variety of settings, including general practice. To assess the views as to the effectiveness and acceptability of a family therapy clinic in a north London surgery, questionnaires were given to general practitioners referring patients, and to clients. Replies were received from seven doctors and 20 clients, representing 11 families. There was a high level of satisfaction among general practitioners referring patients. The clinic proved to be highly acceptable for clients, with 90% agreeing that it was easier to attend a clinic at the practice than at a hospital; and only one patient thought that knowing the general practitioner worked in the practice made it harder to talk openly. Eighty per cent of patients felt the problem had improved at the time of follow up. Where the problem had not improved, 60% felt that they were dealing with it better. Almost all of the patients felt that the family therapy clinic should become a permanent part of local services. The family therapy clinic in general practice has been shown to be effective and popular with users of the service.
