New Patient Registration
Register with the practice as a new patient
How to Register
Check you live within the boundary area
To access our registration process, first check you are in our catchment area. If you have any questions about your eligibilty join this surgery please contact us.
If you submit a registration form and are not living within the practice catchment area, your registration will not be processed.
Temporary Services
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 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.
Your Named GP
We would like to remind all our patients that they have been allocated a named accountable GP, otherwise known as a “usual GP”.
Your usual GP, or their deputy in their absence, is responsible for overseeing the coordination of your care and the upkeep of your medical record. This role includes
ensuring any necessary reviews are up to date, signing repeat prescriptions, checking results and acting on any correspondence from outside the practice, for example, from hospitals, social care or community care.
This does not mean that patients have to see their usual GP when they book an appointment but we encourage patients, especially those with long term conditions, to book appointments with their usual GP whenever this is possible as we believe that continuity of care is beneficial for both patients and doctors.
If you are unsure who your usual GP is please ask at reception when you are next at the surgery.
