New Patient Registration

Please complete the below 'New Patient Registration Form'.  The Carers ID Form you only need to complete if appicable.

Once submitted you will be advised to complete a new Patient Health Check through our Surgery Pod. The reception team will be happy to show you how to use it.

Children 16 and under do not need to complete the registration form. An adult member of the family can register them by providing the required information and signing the registration application on their behalf.

As a patient, you have the right to express preference as to which GP you wish to see. However, if you require an appointment and your preferred GP is not available, you will be offered an appointment with another doctor. If you still wish to see your preferred GP you may have to wait longer.

You can also visit the surgery and the above forms will be provided.

University students

University students who are not resident at home in term-time are requested to register at their University Health Centre for the duration of their course. They can be seen at our surgery at holiday times when necessary by registering as temporary residents.

Your Named GP

The surgery provides all patients with a named GP who will have overall responsibility for the care and support that our surgery provides to them.

We need to divide our patients evenly between all of our doctors, so they can manage their workload. Therefore to do this fairly and impartially, we have selected patients by surname to match to a doctor.

We know that some patients will wish their named GP to be a particular doctor. Where a patient expresses a preference as to which doctor they have been assigned, the practice will make reasonable efforts to accommodate this request, but we would like to reassure patients that this system does not prevent you from seeing any GP in the practice as you currently do. Your named GP will not be available at all times.

You do not need to take any further action and will be informed of your named GP in due course. In the meantime, if you wish to be told the name of your accountable GP, please ask the receptionists when you are next in the surgery.

 

Homeless?

If you are homeless contact the the practice to explain that you are ’of no fixed abode’ or living or staying temporarily in the vicinity of their practice. You are entitled to register in the area where you are, without ‘proof of address’. You can register with any GP in your local area as long as they have space for new patients.
