New Patient Registration

We are happy to accept new patients. Please take time to register when you move into the area (map opposite), preferably in advance of your first appointment.

We invite all newly registered patients to complete relevant paperwork, which will be followed by an appointment with a nurse. It is often very useful to keep a repeat slip from your previous surgery, as it can take a few weeks before we get your medical records. 

In order to ensure we have all of the relevant information  to register you as a new patient, please take a few moments to complete the forms below - thank you.  Please note there are different forms for adult and child registrations.

Adults

GMS1 Registration Form - this is your registration form and must be completed.

Adult New Patient Questionnaire - this will help us to ensure we have all of your current medical information before we receive copies of your medical history from your previous GP.

Information Sharing Consent form - this is a very important form to ensure patients are aware of their options when considering who to share health information with.

New Patient Alcohol Screening - this is a short questionnaire designed to understand current alcohol intake.

Children

GMS1 Registration Form - to be completed by parent/guardian/carer of child to be registered.

Child New Patient Questionnaire - to be completed by parent/guardian/carer of child to be registered.

Information Sharing Consent Form - to be completed by parent/guardian/carer of child to be registered.

Registration With The Practice

We are happy to welcome new patients onto our list.  We would like to invite all family members to complete a questionnaire. This is because it can take a considerable time for us to receive your medical records. There is an online version of this file too, which you may fill out and send to us. When you come to the surgery you will be asked to sign this form to confirm that the details are correct.

Note that by sending the form you will be transmitting information about your self across the Internet and although every effort is made to keep this information secure, no guarantee can be offered in this respect.

Please print off each of the registration forms below, one for each member of the family, fill them out and return to the practice.

Please ensure adults book an appointment for New Patient Check with our Health Care Assistant.

If you are currently taking regular (or repeat) medications you will need to book a routine appointment with a GP before we are able to provide these to you.

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.
