New Patient Registration
There are three simple ways you can register with us
- Use the NHS Register with a GP surgery service
- Complete our secure online registration forms
- Or alternatively you can come in to the practice and fill in a paper registration form
To register with the practice you need to be ordinarily resident in the UK and living within our catchment area. You can make an appointment once your registration has been accepted and approved. However, anyone in England can register with a GP surgery. You do not need proof of address or immigration status, ID or an NHS number.
Proof of ID is required if you would like access to online services - which we recommend. This will need to be photo ID (valid passport, current photo driving licence, Identity Card).
If your registration is accepted we will contact you to arrange the checking of your ID document.
When registering a child or young person under 16 years, please note that we highly recommend that all close family members are also registered with the practice. This allows us to look after your family's health in the best way possible.
Registration step by step
If you are within our catchment area and would like to register with the practice please read and complete the forms below.
If you are visiting the UK on a working visa, reception staff will need to see this. Registration documents need to be completed for each family member; children under the age of 16yrs have different forms.
Please do not be offended if reception staff are unable to complete your registration due to insufficient documentation.
Once registered you will be able to make appointments – this may take up to one week.

Guide to GP Services
The Royal College of General Practitioners has produced a useful guide for patients about the services on offer at GP Surgeries and how to access them.

Temporary Residents
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.
