We endeavour to process registrations immediately to enable a smooth transition from one practice to another. Please note though that it can sometimes take several weeks for records to transfer from your previous GP practice. You can still be seen during this period, but it would be very helpful to bring in any copies of old prescriptions or relevant letters if you are needing medications during this time.
Out of Area Registration
If you live outside our practice boundary, you can register with us, but please note that we might not provide home visits or out-of-hours services.
In such cases, you may be directed to NHS 111. This option is best if you don't anticipate needing home visits or certain community services. If your health needs change, we may suggest registering with a practice closer to your home.
To apply as an out-of-area patient, use the online form and proceed even if you see a warning about your address.
How to Register
We prefer if you register with the practice using our online form (link below).
If you are unable to register online, patients may visit the surgery to register Monday to Friday: 12:30 to 14:00.
If you have been previously registered with a GP in the UK, please bring if possible:
- NHS Number
- Your previous Doctor details
- Address of previous Doctor
- When Registering a Child under 16 years old, please bring a record of their immunisations or their red book.

Temporary Patient Registrations
If you are ill while away from home or not registered with a GP, you can receive emergency treatment from a local GP practice for up to 14 days. After this, you’ll need to register as a temporary or permanent patient.
You can be a temporary patient for up to three months, whilst staying on your permanent GP's list. After that, you must re-register as temporary or become a permanent patient.
To register as a temporary patient, contact the local practice. While they are not obligated to accept you, they must provide emergency care. You cannot register temporarily at a practice where you're already registered.
