We have an open list and welcome requests for registration from patients living in or moving to the practice area.
New Patient Registration
This surgery does not issue repeat (on-going) Benzodiazepines or Z-drug prescriptions. Patients who are taking this type of medication and wish to register with us will be offered a gradual reduction programme. Patients taking regular Benzodiazepines or Z-drugs will be asked to attend a medication review with the GP where a reduction programme will be agreed. Patients will be provided with support to stop taking these medications. Agreement with this policy is a strict requirement for registration with the practice. This policy follows national guidance to ensure the safe use of these medications.
You can register by either:
- clicking the NHS service NHS Online GP Registration link.
- completing the online patient registration form and patient health questionnaire (adult) (Please ensure that you complete both of these forms when registering online)
- completing a form available from reception
- downloading and printing a registration form to complete by hand and bring to the surgery.
You will have a named, accountable doctor who is responsible for coordinating your care. You can still talk to or make appointments to see any of our doctors or nurses, not just your named GP.
We recommend that new patients undertake a health check with a practice nurse.
** Please note that although we endear to complete these registrations within 48 hours, the process can sometimes take up to 7-10 days depending on workflow **
Temporary patients
If you are not registered with the surgery you will be unable to see one of our doctors unless you have a serious emergency. In most other cases, calling 111 is a better option.
If you are not registered but need treatment at the surgery you will need to complete a temporary registration form.
You can be registered as a temporary patient for up to three months. This means you can be registered with our practice and remain a patient of your permanent GP. After three months you will have to re-register as a temporary patient or permanently register with our practice.
