New Patients
Register as New Patient
Please visit the surgery to complete/sign a registration form. You will also be asked to provide photographic ID and evidence of your address. As it often takes some time for records to be forwarded from your former practice all newly registered patients will also be asked to complete a health questionnaire.
Alternatively you may complete the forms on-line below but will still visit the surgery to sign them as soon as possible. Although you will be registered with the practice you have the right to specify a preferred practitioner.
All new patients aged 16 and over will be asked to book a New Patient Check with the practice nurse as soon as possible.
Medical treatment is available from the date of registration. Please contact reception for further information.
Please note that we are an approved teaching practice and supervise qualified doctors who are training in general practice for placements lasting between 4 months and one year.

Temporary Patient Registrations
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.
