Registering

Catchment area

Before filling out a registration form, check you are in our catchment area.

Find out with GPs you can register with on the NHS website.

To register

  • Fill in this quick online registration form to start the process
  • Visit reception from 9am to 5pm and collect a paper registration form

When you register, it’s helpful to have your NHS number. You can use the NHS website to find your NHS number.

Some new patients are required to attend a new patient check with one of our Health care assistants. A suitable appointment will be made when registering.

The practice can only refuse your application if it has fair and reasonable grounds to do so or you live outside the practice area. Telephone requests for registrations are not accepted.

Your Responsibilities as a Patient

  • To treat all staff with respect.
  • To keep appointments or to let us know in good time if you are not able to attend, in order for the appointment to be offered to another patient.
  • To tell us immediately if you change your address or telephone number.

Accessing someone else’s information

As a parent, family member or carer, you may be able to access services for someone else. We call this having proxy access. We can set this up for you if you are both registered with us.

To requests proxy access, please collect a proxy access form from reception from 9am to 5pm.

Linked profiles in your NHS account

 Once proxy access is set up, you can access the other person’s profile in your NHS account, using the NHS App or website.

The NHS website has information about using linked profiles to access services for someone else.

Accountable GP

From 1st April 2015, practices are required to allocate all patients (including children) with a named accountable GP.

The named GP is responsible for the coordination and delivery of all appropriate services, where required based on clinical judgement, to each of their patients.

  • Patients do not need to see their named GP when they book an appointment with the practice.
  • Patients are entitled to choose to see any GP or nurse in the practice.
