New Patients
To register with us you are required to live within our practice area. If you are unsure of our practice area please ask at reception.
Before we can accept your registration we must see 2 forms of I.D confirming your address, one a picture if over 18 years old.
We also ask you to complete a registration form and a new patient questionnaire. Once these are completed it usually takes 2-3 days to register you on our system.

Moving out of the area
If you move out of our area you will have to register at a practice in the area you now reside.
Non-English Speakers
We offer a translation service to all our patients and these can be face to face or telephone service.
Please tell us if you require a translator when you book your appointment.
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.
