Registering with the surgery
To register with the surgery:
- fill out an online registration form
- visit reception from 10am to 6pm 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.
Catchment area
We can only register patients who currently live within our catchment area.

Not in our catchment area?
Register online
We are using an NHS online service called Register with a GP surgery that makes it easy to register with this GP surgery. This secure system will email us your registration form.
Just fill in this quick online form to start the process. You do not need proof of address or immigration status, ID or an NHS number.
The service is designed and run by the NHS, so your personal information is safe. It reduces our administrative workload and makes it easier for you to register.
Paper forms are still available if you need one.

You and Your General Practice is a national guide on what you can expect from your GP surgery. It also explains what you can do to get the best from the NHS.

Rights and responsibilities
We strongly support the NHS policy of zero tolerance. Any patient attending the practice who abuses the doctors, staff or other patients verbally, physically or in any threatening manner whatsoever, will risk immediate removal from the practice list.
Named accountable GP
You will be assigned to a doctor who will be your Named Accountable GP.
You will be added to the practice list, not an individual doctor. You can ask to be seen by any of the doctors in the surgery but it will not always be possible to see the doctor of your choice on a particular day or time.
If you leave the UK for more than 3 months
Your medical records remain with your registered GP but we will provide you with full medical care while you are in the area. If you leave the UK for a period of more than three months the doctor is no longer responsible for your medical care and may not provide repeat medication in your absence.
Homeless people
You can register with us if you are homeless or of no fixed abode but reside within the practice boundary. Further information can be found on the NHS website.
Registering as a temporary resident
To register you’ll need to fill out a temporary services form (GMS3), available from GP surgeries.
After 3 months, you’ll have to reapply to register as a temporary resident or become a permanent patient.
You may also be able to register as a temporary resident if you are visiting from abroad.
If your application is refused, you can still receive any treatment you need immediately for up to 14 days.
Immediately necessary treatment
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 our Practice for up to 14 days. After 14 days, you will need to register as a temporary or permanent patient. Contact reception for further information.
