Forms filled in online will need to be signed at the surgery.We will require you to bring in one form of ID for each patient who is registering.

You will also be asked to complete a health questionnaire.

Suitable forms of ID:

A newer style driving licence (with your photo printed on it)

OR

All new patients are invited to have a health check. This health check, along with a questionnaire, provides us with an opportunity to meet you and obtain any important background medical history before your medical records arrive from your former practice.

There is an online version of this file too, which you may fill out and send to us. When you come to the surgery you will be asked to sign this form to confirm that the details are correct.

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.
