If you would like to register with our Practice you will need to:

• Live within the catchment area; please check below.
• Complete the GMS1 Registration Form below or from reception.
• Complete the New patient Questionnaire, either below or from reception.
• Provide proof of identity and address, e.g. utility bill and passport.

All new patients can book a health check with our Practice Nurse to ensure that any required tests are up to date and that we have an accurate note of any repeat medication you may be taking.

Our Practice Nurse will also answer any questions that you might have about the services we offer at the Practice.

Medical treatment is available from the date of registration. Please contact reception for further information.

If you wish to pre-register click on the links below to open the forms. When you have completed all of the details, click on the "Submit" button to mail your form to us. 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.

If you are ill while away from home or if you are not registered with a doctor but need to see one urgently  you can receive emergency treatment from a local GP practice we may need to contact your regular GP Practice for a medical summary.

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.

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.

How Proxy Access works

Proxy access was developed to allow someone other than the patient to access and manage parts of their GP online services account. The proxy is given their own online access account (rather than using the patient’s login details). It is often used by the parents or recognised carers of young children, and recognised carers of adults.

To set up Proxy Access:

1. Speak with reception GP Practice; you will need to provide your identification (ID) to establish you are the person that you say you are.
2.  If the person you wish to act on behalf of is aged over 11 years, they will need to provide either Verbal Consent to a GP witness at the practice, or a signed consent form or letter.
3. Set up your Proxy Patient Access account, for instructions please click here.
