The doctors welcome new patients who live within our practice area. As it often takes sometime for records to be forwarded from your former practice all newly registered patients will be asked to complete a health questionnaire and are offered a consultation with the doctor.
Medical treatment is available from the date of registration. Please contact reception for further information.
You may print off and complete a Registration form and appropriate Health Questionnaire form and bring both forms with you on your first visit to the practice.
Please note that a separate Health Questionnaire form is required for children under the age of 5 years. Please ensure you enter your NHS number onto the Registration form.
PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOU COMPLETE BOTH THE REGISTRATION FORM PLUS EITHER 16 & OVER QUESTIONNAIRE OR UNDER 16 QUESTIONNAIRE.
Thank 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 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.
