New Patients

Register as a New Patient

Anyone in England can register with a GP surgery. You are not required to provide proof of address, ID or immigration status, but it might be helpful if you can provide some form of ID, particularly if you would like us to set you up with online services.

If you're homeless, you can give a temporary address, such as a friend's address, a day centre or the GP surgery address.

To register please follow the steps below: 

  1. Check you live within the practice boundary on the map to the right - we won't be able to accept new registrations from outside our boundary.
  2. Complete this online form Register Here - this will be processed by our admin team
  3. Once you have been registered we will text you a questionnaire requesting some final information

Preferred:

  • If possible, provide some form of identification and/or proof of address, (e.g. a passport, driving licence or birth certificate).
  • Discuss with reception getting yourself set-up with online services

You should also be aware of how your data is used and your options for consent or dissent. To find out more visit our page dedicated to this How Your Data is Used and Your Options which includes the forms to fill in to either opt-out or opt-in to data sharing Type 1 Data Opt-out Form and the National Data Opt-Out Form.

When you have registered you might be invited for a new patient medical with the Practice Nurse or a doctor, which will include a general health check. 

If you need to receive your medical information in an alternative format (eg. large print) or another language, please inform one of the staff.

The area covered by the practice is shown opposite.

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. 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. 

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.
