New Patients Registrations

Currently we are only accepting patients who are new to our catchment area. We cannot accept your registration if you are moving from another GP surgery locally.

If you are eligible to register with our surgery, please visit reception to collect registration forms.

Thank you.

Register as a New Patient

To register with our practice, each person will be asked to complete a registration form. All patients aged 16 or over will need to complete the adult registration form.

If you are on repeat medication(s), please list or attach your repeat slip from your previous surgery to your registration forms. This is for information purposes only, whilst the medical records from your previous GP surgery are being transferred to us. You will still need to request medication when it is due.

If you are set up so your prescriptions are sent automatically to a pharmacy, please inform thee pharmacy if you no longer want them to recieve your medication.

If you are completing a child registration pack for a newborn baby or young child, please also make sure you include a list of vaccinations given, which can be obtained from your previous GP surgery or the red book.

We have an open list and patients moving within our catchment area are free to register. To register at the practice your home address must fall within our practice boundary. You can check to see if your address is within our boundary by using the map and postcode checker on this page.

You may consult any Clinician in the practice. We do ask you to see the same Clinician for the duration of a particular illness or problem, if this is possible.

For your benefit we feel it is important for all members of a household to be registered with the same practice.

If you would like to register with the practice, please check you are in our catchment area, and collect registration forms from reception.

Temporary Patient Registrations

If you are unwell whilst away from home, you can receive emergency treatment from a local GP practice for 14 days. If you need an appointment after 14 days, you will need to register as a temporary patient. You will need to be staying in our catchment area to use our emergency and temporary services.

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 surgery. If you will need treatment for longer then three months, you will have to permanently register with the practice. You can re-register with your previous GP surgery when you return home.

To register as a temporary patient, please speak to our reception team. If we can offer an appointment, you will need to attend the practice to complete a temporary patient registration form. You cannot register as a temporary patient at a practice in the town or area where you are already registered.
