New Patient Registration

If you wish to join the practice please bring your Medical Card (and those of your immediate family who also wish to register), completed and signed, to the surgery. Don’t worry if you can’t find your Medical Cards; you can still sign on.

You will be asked to complete a registration form and a Health Questionnaire at the surgery.

We will require you to have a New Patient Medical with the Nurse. This is a basic health check for you and an opportunity for us to obtain important background medical history prior to the arrival of your medical records.

Practice Area

This is an area of about five and a half miles in all directions from both surgeries. This covers no less than 182 square miles.

The Partners have decided that the above represents the defined Practice Area. However, this area includes several of our neighbouring practices and we will not be taking new to the practice patients from villages adequately covered by these doctors.

Non-English Speakers

These fact sheets have been written to explain the role of UK health services, the National Health Service (NHS), to newly-arrived individuals seeking asylum. They cover issues such as the role of GPs, their function as gatekeepers to the health services, how to register and how to access emergency services.

Special care has been taken to ensure that information is given in clear language, and the content and style has been tested with user groups.

Pre-registration with the practice

If you wish to pre-register click on the link below to open the form. When you have completed all of the details, click on the "Send" button to mail your form to us. When you visit the surgery for the first time you will be asked to sign the form to confirm that the details are correct.

Pre-registration Form

When you register you will also be asked to fill out a medical 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.

Online medical questionnaire for new patients

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.

Registration Form

Temporary Residents

If someone staying with you needs to see a Doctor, we can treat them as a Temporary Resident. Reception can give you details. Temporary Registration only lasts for three months: after this they must register as a regular patient.
