New Patient Registration

If you wish to register as a patient and live within our practice boundary (see map opposite) please ask the receptionist for a new patient pack - you will need to complete the registration form, the Online Questionnaire for New Patients and provide the following:

• New address including the postcode
• Previous address including the postcode
• Previous doctor details i.e. name and address of doctor
• NHS Number
• Proof of address, i.e. utility bill, bank statement, driving licence, rent book

We will not be able to register you unless you are able to provide proof of address e.g. rent book, tenancy agreement, council tax bill (see above).

If you are unable to supply this information, we will be able to see you for any medical emergency as an overseas visitor and this will attract the relevant fees for this service.

If you are visiting the country on holiday, and your treatment is not urgent, you can be seen as a private patient.

You will be able to claim this fee back via your travel insurance. Please ask for a receipt.

Guide to GP Services

The Royal College of General Practitioners has produced a useful guide for patients about the services on offer at GP Surgeries and how to access them.  You can download the guide below.

Pre-registration Form

When you register you will also be asked to fill out a medical questionnaire. This is because it can take a considerable time for us to receive your medical records. There is an online version of this file too, which you may fill out and send to us. When you come to the surgery you will be asked to sign this form to confirm that the details are correct.

Online Medical Questionnaire For New Patients

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.

Alternatively you may print off a registration form, fill it out and bring it in with you on your first visit to the practice.

Temporary Registration

If you are ill while away from home or if you are not registered with a doctor but need to see one you can receive emergency treatment from the local GP practice for 14 days. After 14 days you will need to register as a temporary or 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 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.
