New Patients

Registration with the practice is open to anyone living within the practice area.

To register CLICK HERE and either fill in the online form or print one off.

A seperate form needs to be completed for each person registering.

If you have an appointment the same day you are handing the forms in please arrive at least 15 minutes before your appointment to allow our reception staff time to enter your details onto our system.

Please have a look at our Practice Leaflet for useful information and to help explain how the practice works.

If you are ill while away from home and need  emergency treatment from the local GP practice  you can temporarily register with them for 14 days. After 14 days you will need to either register as a temporary or become a permanent patient.

You can be registered as a temporary patient for up to three months. 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 surgery 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.

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.
