All new patients are invited to make an appointment to have a health check with our practice nurse.
Register With Us
To register with us, please check you live within our catchment area; you can do this using the map below.
Once you have ensured you live within our boundary, please complete the online ‘New Patient Registration’ form. This is the preferred option for new patient registration.
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.
Registration forms are also available from Reception at the Practice Monday to Friday 12.30pm to 2pm.
If you have been previously registered with a GP in the UK, please bring if possible:
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.
Practice Area
If you would like to check whether you are resident within our Practice area and so eligible to register with us a Practice then please enter your postcode below.
If you do not live within our practice boundary, you may still be eligible to register, but you will need to read the information about out of area registration before applying.
Out of Area Registration
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.
Catchment Area
Temporary Patient Registrations
You can register temporarily with a GP surgery while away from home for work, study or on holiday. You’ll remain registered with your permanent GP surgery.
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.
Registering with a GP as a temporary resident – NHS – NHS (www.nhs.uk)
Details of any treatment you have will be passed to your permanent GP surgery. They will add the information to your medical records.
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.
Find Your NHS Number
Sometimes when filling in online forms or speaking with our staff, you may be asked for your NHS number.
This online tool will help you find your number if you do not know it.
Please Note
You do not need to know your NHS number to use NHS services, but it can be useful to have it.
Other ways to get your NHS number
If you cannot get your NHS number online you can:
- find it on any letter from the NHS like a prescription or appointment letter
- call your GP surgery and ask them for your number
