Alternatively you can pick up a registration form from reception or download a copy.

Patient registration form

The registration form will ask you for personal details such as your name, address, date of birth, telephone number, previous address and doctor. This information helps the Primary Care Trust to quickly trace your medical records and send them to your new surgery.  Your NHS number is extremely important to ensure we obtain the correct medical records from your previous GP.  With your NHS number we can obtain your records electronically making the registration process much quicker.  You can telephone your previous GP to obtain this information or find it on your prescription slip.

The Health Check Questionnaire will ask you for some basic, lifestyle and allergy questions, so we can provide the best service possible from the start. 

3) Placement on the Practice List 

Once you have completed the online registration form the surgery will contact you to arrange a new patient assessment with a Health Care Assistant.
