ideally it is preferable that you bring some form of identification in with you, such as a passport or driving license, so that we can see your full name and date of birth so that we can accurately register you and locate your medical records from your current GP surgery, but this is not essential.

If English is not your first language, please inform us. If you would like us to arrange a translator to be available during any consultation please let us know as soon as possible.

Temporary Registrations

If you are ill while away from home or do not have a regular GP but need to see one, you can receive immediate and necessary treatment by appointment only with our Practice for a short period of time. As a temporary registration you can still remain registered at your own permanent home GP surgery but receive local services as necessary. Please call reception to see if you can register temporarily, you will need to come into the surgery to complete a form.

Online Services

If you would like to use any of our services that are available online, you will need to also complete this form. You need to bring the completed form to the surgery along with photo ID and proof of address before a unique username and password are issued to you.

Temporary Registration

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.
