New Patients

Register as a New Patient

The Practice will only register patients within its catchment area.

If you would like to register with our Practice you will need to fill in the necessary paperwork.  You can either call in to the surgery and collect the necessary paperwork or download the registration form and bring it in to us.

Proof of identity and address proof is also required. All new patients over 18 years of age will also need to complete a new patient questionnaire. This will assist the doctor by providing some background information should you become ill before your medical records have arrived at the practice.

Before registering, please check that you live within the surgery's catchment area using the postcode checker below.

When you visit the surgery for the first time you will be asked to sign the forms to confirm that the details are correct and you will be required to bring in your ID (i.e. : passport or driving license for photo ID and a utility bill for address proof). Please note we do not accept ID via email.

Please check to see if your address falls within our catchment area before you send your pre registration forms to us.

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.

Named GP

Did you know that every patient has a named GP?

This is the GP who is responsible for handling all the paperwork for that patient (prescriptions, clinic letters etc.)

For patients over 75 years who would benefit from continuity of care, this is the GP with whom they would book routine appointments.

To find out who your named GP is, please ask reception.

All patients have the right to express their preference of practitioner to the surgery.

If you choose to see another doctor at the surgery you are entirely free to go on doing so exactly as before.
