Register with the surgery

Information:

Please be aware that we are currently experiencing an extremely high number of new patient requests. We are working hard to work through these but currently it may take up to 6 weeks for your registration to be processed.

Catchment area

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

You can also find out which GPs you can register with on the NHS website.

Registering with the surgery

Currently we are only able to accept registrations from patients living in the B24 postcode area.

To register with the surgery:

All new patients over 18 are offered a new patient check.

For under 5s we require sight of the red book and immunisation history.

Please note, incomplete registration forms or registrations from outside of B24 will not be processed.

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

Temporary patient 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.

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.

If you wish to register as a temporary patient, please contact the practice directly.
