New Patient Registration

Anyone wishing to register, living in our practice area, can do so at reception between 08:30 to 18:00. Please bring photo identification and proof of address. Birth Certificates are acceptable for children. Children will need to seen by the practice staff at their registration.

You will need to complete a registration form and a health questionnaire which will provide useful information whilst we wait for your medical records to arrive from your previous doctor. Both forms are available to download from the above "Registering Online" tab. Please note you will still need to attend the surgery to complete your registration.

Medical treatment is available from the date of registration. Please contact reception for further information.

Online Registration With The Practice

We are using a new online service called Register with a GP surgery that makes it easy to register with this GP surgery.

Just fill in this quick online form to start the process. You do not need proof of address or immigration status, ID or an NHS number.

The service is designed and run by the NHS, so your personal information is safe. It cuts our administrative workload and makes it easier for you to register.

A paper form is still available if you need one.

Note that by sending the form you will be transmitting information about your self across the Internet and although every effort is made to keep this information secure, no guarantee can be offered in this respect.

These fact sheets have been written to explain the role of UK health services, the National Health Service (NHS), to newly-arrived individuals seeking asylum. They cover issues such as the role of GPs, their function as gatekeepers to the health services, how to register and how to access emergency services.

Special care has been taken to ensure that information is given in clear language, and the content and style has been tested with user groups. Open the leaflets in one of the following languages

English	Urdu
Albanian	Hindi
Arabic	Lithuanian
Bulgarian	Polish
Chinese (Cantonese)	Portuguese

Temporary Registration

If you are ill while away from home and are staying locally with someone registered at the surgery please call reception to try and arrange for you to be seen. 

General Temporary Registration Information

You can be registered as a temporary patient for up to 15 days. This will allow you to be on the local practice list and still remain a patient of your permanent GP. After three months you will have to re-register as a temporary patient or permanently register with that practice.

To register as a temporary patient simply contact the local practice you wish to use. Practices do not have to accept you as a temporary patient although they do have an obligation to offer emergency treatment.

You cannot register as a temporary patient at a practice in the town or area where you are already registered.
