Please note, in order to fully register you we will need your NHS number. This can be obtained from your previous practice, or you can find it using the NHS online service by clicking here.
When you attend with your form to complete your registration, you will need to bring photo ID and proof of your current address such as a utility bill.
When you register with us, we may request details of your past medical problems in order to to avoid delay whilst we wait for your records to reach us. Your electronic record will be partially available to view almost immediately but it takes a little longer for your entire electronic record to filter through, and up to 3 months for your paper record to be received so please do make us aware of any urgent issues we may not know about.
Register Before You Need Us
Many new patients only register with us when they have a medical problem. We strongly recommend that you register when you move into the Practice area. Often fit young professionals are rather proud of the fact that they still are registered with the family doctor where their parents live and regard it as a weakness to even consider that they might one day require an urgent appointment! It is much more sensible to plan, so that we can avail ourselves of your full medical record, ready for when we need it.
New Patients
If you are on repeat medicines, we would like you to come and see one of the GPs so that they can be set up on our system. It maybe that your Dr can recommend some changes in light of new developments, or that the quantities need adjusting.
