New Patient Registration

The doctors welcome new patients who live within our practice areas. As it often takes some time for records to be forwarded from your former practice all newly registered patients will be asked to complete a health questionnaire and are offered a consultation with the doctor. 

Practice Areas

Catchment Area

Please check you live within a practice area.

Register With Us

You can complete registration in two ways:

  • Visit the practice in-person.
  • Complete the forms online (below). When you visit the surgery for the first time you will then be asked to sign the form to confirm that the details are correct.

Form for Online Pre-Registration


Registering Serving Armed Forces Personnel

The Practice will register serving members of the armed forces who have received written authorisation from the Defence Medical Services (DMS) to receive primary medical services and are currently living or working in the area covered by the Practice for the period where authorisation has been given.

Registering With The Practice If You’re Homeless

You are able to register with this practice even if you do not have a permanent home address. In this case we will register you under the practice address. You will be able to access information by regular attendance at the surgery, text messaging, or by any other means that are appropriate for yourself.


Overseas Visitors

Those who visit the UK from overseas must pay for their care when they are in England.

In 2015 changes were made to how the NHS charges overseas visitors for healthcare so the NHS does not lose out on income for the services these patients have received.


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.

You can find more information on registering as a temporary resident on the NHS website.

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.
