or email us at:

You can either return your registration forms to us via the practice admin email address above or by posting the documents through our letterbox at the front of the building.

Upon registering as a new patient it is essential that you have your NHS number documented on your registration form.

Your NHS number can be found on your NHS card, NHS correspondence or can be given to you by your previous GP Surgery.

We require your NHS number to ensure that we are matching you to the correct medical records.

We also require where possible to see proof of address and a photo I.D. 

Without this information there may be a delay in registering you as a patient with the practice, due to meeting the requirements of confirming your identity with the Health Authority.

If you take any regular medications, please ensure that you have a suitable supply to last until you are fully registered with the practice.

We ask that you provide information of your medications upon registration, to prevent delay in future issues.

Temporary Patient Registrations

If you are away from home and become unwell or if you are not registered with a doctor but need to seek medical help, 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  treatment that is immediately necessary.

You cannot register as a temporary patient at a practice in the town or area where you are already registered.

Non-English Speakers

These fact sheets have been written to explain the role of UK health services, the National Health Service (NHS), to newly-arrived individuals seeking asylum. They cover issues such as the role of GPs, their function as gatekeepers to the health services, how to register and how to access emergency services.

Special care has been taken to ensure that information is given in clear language, and the content and style has been tested with user groups.
